Talking Heads - a Gardening Podcast
Ep. 256 - Spring is well and truly in the air - and Lucy and Saul are utterly smitten. The horticultural juices are once again in full flow, as the lengthening sunny days brings more time outside and the start to another wonderful garden year!
Spring is the season when gardeners throw off the hibernation and slumber of months of wet feet, many layers and waterproofs and are reborn anew! The stirring of life in the garden is one of the years great experiences, and makes a gardening life such a worthwhile pursuit, not only is it good for the planet to see the earth greening up, it is also good for the gardeners soul. But there is still lots of hard work to get on with - seeds have to be sown, mulch laid, supports erected and lawns mown. So join Lucy and Saul as they continue their professional gardening lives in the pure heaven that is Spring!
There is something in the air at the start of March 2025, and Lucy and Saul have been breathing it in with huge gulps. The weather for the week has been set to glorious, and being a gardener outside has become pure joy, as the grey of winter seems (for now) to have been dispersed. And you can hear it in the Talking Heads pair's voices, as they become giddy with this time of year. Lucy is plunging head long into her own garden, while Saul wallows in his compost heap - isn't it a great time to be alive!
