Weed It & Reap - King's Park, Scotland

Owner Rose-Ann says her garden has become a running joke with her colleagues - that is, until the talented Weed It & Reap team arrive to put things right! Read on to find out what happens in this, the tenth episode...

Rose-Ann and Steven have two children and would like to move to a house with more bedrooms and a bigger kitchen as their house has become too small for a family of four. They have not found a new property as yet but as soon as they do they will be putting their home on the market. Rose-Ann would like to stay within the area but would consider the Cambuslang and Burnside area too.

The couple have lived in their semi detached flat since 1993. Built in the 1940s, it has two bedrooms, but they have converted the study into a third bedroom for Aidan. Rose-Ann and Steven bought the house for £32,000 and are hoping to get £65,000 for it now.

Rose-Ann thought that her colleagues at work were winding her up when she received a phone call from UKTV Style, as Rose-Ann's garden has been a running joke for some time now. The previous owner had been a real gardener and Rose-Ann says he would "turn in his grave" if he saw how she had neglected it! However, with two young children and working 30 hours a week she never seems to have the time to do anything to it...
