Spring 2022 has arrived and a new chapter in our gardening lives has started as bulbs, early blossom and the early tufts of seedlings and herbaceous perennials speak of the year ahead. As days in spring seem to tumble one after another in an ever-accelerating list of garden jobs, plantings and hum of mowers - it's a great time to shake off the winter slumber and start to engage with the natural world around us, enjoying the spectacles of spring that lie within. As ever, Saul and Lucy will bring you their waffled musings and exciting revelations as this most joyous of seasons unfolds!
Saul and Lucy are on the road in Essex again - this time visiting Audley End Garden on a secret mission to do some filming. So seeing each other again promotes some more entertaining Horticultural waffle, as they bask in the glorious Spring sunshine and warmth that has characterised the last week or so over most of the UK. The pair chat about trained fruit, their meadows waking up and Lucy's new experiment with Bio-fumigants. We also announce the winner of our first ever Supporters competition for a pair of Niwaki Secateurs and cleaning kit.
