Episode 2 (57x2)

Air date: Mar 22, 2024

As the days are getting longer, Monty is busy preparing his dahlia tubers ready for planting, cutting back fuchsias and planting out shallots. And as an alternative to box topiary, he’s on a mission to champion privet. Sue Kent travels to Hidcote in Gloucestershire in search of some inspiration for her new hot border at home. We visit an abundant kitchen garden in Whitby, where the no-dig method yields an array of unusual veg. Plus, a gardener on the south coast who, despite 56mph winds, has created his own green oasis, where he challenges his plants to survive. And Carol Klein is in her own garden in Devon, where this year she will be sharing her passion for growing plants for free. She makes a start by sowing seeds for a brand new border.
