Gàrradh Phàdruig follows the progress of keen newbie gardener Peter MacQueen, as he sets about transforming his back garden in the heart of Glasgow from a messy, neglected disaster zone to productive, and aesthetically pleasing, outdoor space.

Spring has arrived and Peter is finally planting out in the garden and it is time for the potatoes to go in the ground. Coinneach helps paint the walls and we see the greenhouse start to fill up with seedlings. Peter visits his neighbours and collects something to help his tatties. Seoras watches with interest as Peter recycles an old pallet into a strawberry planter.
The series is filmed across a growing season, from January to October. Seòras the dog is with Peter all of the time - Westies love to get their paws dirty!
