Well winter is on our doorsteps, and for the general population any thoughts of gardening stops, as the common thought is the 'garden has gone to sleep'...Well nothing could be farther from the truth, as the season of shorter days and chilly weather could be one of the most important and busy in the yearly life of your garden. Join Lucy and Saul every week as they show you exactly how busy they are, whether getting everything festive for Xmas, clearing up after the latest storm, enjoying the emergent shoots of early flowering plants or getting ready for spring and a return to the start of the great garden cycle!
This week, your favourite professional gardening duo ponder some key horticultural questions: why does Saul feel able to 'top' the grass in winter but not cut it, why did Lucy's 30,000 hydrostatic head waterproof coat fail her miserably (luckily her trousers didn't), does Saul sneakily line-dance around Stonelands when the owners are out, and why are tripod ladders so incredibly useful? Saul and Lucy also answer listener queries on what are the best gardening shows to visit in 2025, and Lucy concludes that Saul may not be completely convinced by her 'yogardening' concept....
