Episode 17

At Longmeadow Monty checks the progress of the potatoes he planted earlier in the year and recommends plants for dry shade under trees. We travel to Somerset to get water saving tips from a water scientist who uses a variety of techniques to save as much water as possible in her own garden and we meet a gardener who has filled his home with over one thousand houseplants. In 2019 Nick Bailey gave a masterclass on how to grow summer flowering Clematis and Arit Anderson took a boat trip to meet a group of people who were planting up the Birmingham canal sides for both wildlife and the wellbeing of city dwellers. Plus we feature a few more hints, tips and stories from viewers' gardens.
