For those who have been around the gardening world for some time, it is impossible to sidestep the highly rated, and extroverted, Shirley Bovshow. Her amiable style has set her well for the many TV shows she has presented and many will know her from her Eden-Makers Blog.

Shirley has started a new site called the GardenWorldReport offering streaming and on-demand videos for gardeners to view around the world. In this week's episode she, and Billy Goodnick (Garden Wise Guy), honour some of our Blotanical Award winners including Carol from May Dreams Gardens, and Anna - Flowergardengirl amongst others.

If you want to see the video then head to the GardenWorldReport and click the "On-Demand" button. You will see the "Garden Book and Blog Awards Show 10/18/09" at the top of the list. You can also leave a message in the chat box or hold a discussion with whoever is online at the time.

A big kudos to Shirley for putting this together and I look forward to watching future episodes.
