Notice
Stand still in your patch for one minute. Name three things you can see, hear, or smell. The garden is always offering — most of us are too busy to receive.

Ask a gardening question and receive a personalised masterclass shaped around your locality, climate, season, growing conditions, space and experience.

Ask Nàdar answers any gardening question in seconds. The AI Masterclass creator writes you a full multi-lesson course on any topic — from no-dig to seed saving to attracting bees. Both shaped to your climate zone, season, space and skill. Free to try, unlimited with any membership.
Our ethos
Whether that's a balcony rail, a shady kitchen windowsill, a ladder against the fence, a stack of gutters or a full plot — every guide, masterclass and calendar in Patch & Pot is shaped to whatever space you actually have.
Garlic
Garlic needs a cold spell and short days to form good bulbs, so November in London is ideal for planting.
Broad Bean
Hardy autumn-sown varieties such as 'Aquadulce Claudia' can overwinter in London's mild, sheltered spots and crop early next year.
Protect pots from frost
Move tender plants close to the house wall or into an unheated greenhouse, and wrap terracotta pots in fleece or bubble wrap. Raise pots on feet so they don't sit in cold, waterlogged saucers.
Clear fallen leaves
Rake leaves from lawns, paths and containers and stack them in a mesh bin to make leaf mould over two years. Remove them from crowns of alpine and low-growing plants to prevent rot.
Slugs and snails
Ragged holes in leaves and silvery trails, especially on lettuce, young bulb shoots and winter salads.
Inside Patch & Pot
Region-aware advice generated for your exact place and month. Whether you garden on a ninth-floor balcony in Singapore or a windowsill in Reykjavík, you'll get a calendar, tasks and pest warnings that actually fit your conditions.
A note on patience
“Plants don't read calendars — but they do feel where you live. The most useful gardening advice is the kind written for your month, in your place.”
Why we're here
Patch & Pot is built around a simple idea: tending plants tends you back. The patch isn't only a place to produce a meal — it's a chair you sit in, the sound of bees in the rosemary, a butterfly on the buddleia, the rustle of an ornamental grass. We help you grow the food, the flowers and the small daily practice that grows you, too.
Stand still in your patch for one minute. Name three things you can see, hear, or smell. The garden is always offering — most of us are too busy to receive.
Plants grow at plant pace. Watering, deadheading, pricking out — these are not chores to rush through, they're invitations to drop the day's tempo for ten minutes.
Eat one thing you grew this week. Cut one stem for the kitchen table. The patch isn't there to look productive — it's there to feed you, in every sense of the word.
