Talking Heads - a Gardening Podcast
Ep. 246 - In the wake of storm Darragh Saul and Lucy discuss tree loss, removal and renewal. A moment of sadness brings with it the silver lining of opportunity
Well winter is on our doorsteps, and for the general population any thoughts of gardening stops, as the common thought is the 'garden has gone to sleep'...Well nothing could be farther from the truth, as the season of shorter days and chilly weather could be one of the most important and busy in the yearly life of your garden. Join Lucy and Saul every week as they show you exactly how busy they are, whether getting everything festive for Xmas, clearing up after the latest storm, enjoying the emergent shoots of early flowering plants or getting ready for spring and a return to the start of the great garden cycle!
In the wake of storm Darragh Stonelands is mourning the loss of some sizeable trees, and Saul has been navigating his chainsaw trousers for the big clear up. It left the two podcast hosts pondering what would be their favourite trees if the time ever came to replace veteran specimens. Plus, Saul and Lucy share their experiences of shredder joy - and disappointment.
