What is that on the horizon - well, it's Spring of course. The klaxon for warmer, longer days is finally sounding and Head Gardeners Saul and Lucy are looking forward to it immensely. Spring is a wonderful time of year but also incredibly busy for all professional gardeners up and down the country as the gardens come alive with colour, texture and the occasional weed! Join them both as they navigate this beautiful time of year, bringing you the sights and sounds of Stonelands and East Donyland, as well as their home gardens and beyond.

Lucy and Saul are back to their day-jobs after Beaulieu, Holidays and House sales - which means things are bound to go wrong. This week Saul has had the dreaded curse of 'threes', as three catastrophes have befallen his usual fun at Stonelands, but like water off a ducks back you must reach out for the positives, embrace the setbacks as learning opportunities and enjoy the Garden as May brings one of the most beautiful periods in the growing year!
