Eli Appleby-Donald, one half of 'In the Garden With Eli and Kate', shares her incredible gardening journey that began with a simple desire for outdoor space and grew into a passionate affair with growing food and connecting with a global audience.
Eli tends an urban garden in East Lothian which she has managed to make beautiful and productive. She considers herself a perpetual learner gardener, and has spent the last 11 years learning by experience, success, and failure.
Eli is a digital education guru for a local university by day, and she regularly blogs and vlogs about gardening on YouTube where she has hundreds of videos all about her gardening journey and her top tips.
You may also know her as a Scotland Grows magazine columnist, and you can find out more about Eli and all the fun of creating her suburban garden paradise on either her YouTube channel, website or Instagram.

Cardiac Cowboys
The heart was always off-limits to surgeons. Cutting into it spelled instant death for the patient. That is, until a ragtag group of doctors scattered across the Midwest and Texas decided to throw out the rule book. Working in makeshift laboratories and home garages, using medical devices made from scavenged machine parts and beer tubes, these men and women invented the field of open heart surgery. Odds are, someone you know is alive because of them. So why has history left them behind? Presented by Chris Pine, CARDIAC COWBOYS tells the gripping true story behind the birth of heart surgery, and the young, Greatest Generation doctors who made it happen. For years, they competed and feuded, racing to be the first, the best, and the most prolific. Some appeared on the cover of Time Magazine, operated on kings and advised presidents. Others ended up disgraced, penniless, and convicted of felonies. Together, they ignited a revolution in medicine, and changed the world.
