January Garden Video
I made a video about my January Garden!
In it I will share with you:
The most recent changes I made in my garden
My favourite places to sit
The key plants in my January Garden
Seeds to start now
3 DIY projects for 2024
A walk through of my whole garden
Here it is:
This is my first YouTube video of 2024 and my first proper Youtube video! (All the ones I posted in December were actually Instagram Lives that I repurposed).
I was really nervous filming this and even more nervous putting it out into the world.
Especially because January is not the best time in anyone’s garden, right?
But I was brave and I filmed the video AND put it out into the world!
If you have any thoughts on it, I would love it if you let me know! Just drop me your thoughts elisabeth@joyfulgarden.co.uk.

Places to Sit
I am beyond passionate on the topic of gardens needing LOADS of places to sit. Way more than you would think. I have 5 sitting areas in my medium sized garden and am planning on adding at least another 2 this year.
My most recent addition was this arbour. It is a brilliant place to sit if it is raining (which it does quite a lot, seeing as it is January and I live in Edinburgh).
It has been so lovely having somewhere to sit in the rain and still enjoy the garden.
Seeds to Sow Now
There is actually only one seed I would definitely sow in January BUT I got carried away and sowed way more (I promised myself I wouldn’t get carried away but I always do…)
ANYWAY the one seed you should definitely sow now:
Cobea Scandens
And If you want to sow another:
Sweet Peas
Why Cobea? You’ll need to watch the video! ⬆️
Thank you for stopping by my little patch. And I hope you have a wonderful day in your garden
