Talking Heads - a Gardening Podcast

Ep. 217 - When will the rain stop? Who knows, but until then the Talking Heads pair bring you more Horticultural waffle looking at grow lights, where to get a good Garden job and Alpine plants.

Lucy Chamberlain and Saul Walker Episode 217

Spring is the time of the gardening year where all gardeners sigh with relief, it's really time to get out and about and enjoy the wonderful world of horticulture.  A garden waking up and showing its early colour and form is a wonderful space to live and work in, an it's no exception that Lucy and Saul revel in this time of year, as their gardening lives start to get busier with sowing, planting, propagation, mowing, mulching and all other gardening tasks. Sprinkle in some early flower shows and the odd plant fair and our gardening life is complete, so thank god for Spring!

Most outdoor gardening is on hold until we finally dry out - especially in Devon where Saul has received roughly two and a half times the average rainfall over March! But that doesn't mean Lucy and him have to put the horticultural waffle on hold, as we answer listeners questions on Grow Lights and where the professional gardener can go to find advertised jobs. We also talk about Alpine plants with Saul's first flower show of the year - though the weather may not be playing ball, there's still plenty of gardening going on!
