Talking Heads - a Gardening Podcast
Ep. 268 - Saul takes you along on a 'Weekend in the Life' of a gardener - where it's a double header of Garden Society meet-ups - nattering, drinking tea and buying plants are what it's all about.
Summer in 2025 is here - and after one of the sunniest and driest Springs on record, we enter the long days and sultry nights with the garden looking glorious but always looking to the horizon for a little bit of rain to keep things looking green and lush. Herbaceous borders are set to maximum colour, vegetable beds seem to multiply in growth weekly and the gardeners tan is ever present. So enjoy the long summer days, take some time to appreciate time in your garden and join the Talking Heads pair as they continue to look after the spaces they are in charge of, as well as enjoying their gardens at home.
Oh no - after Saul's period of illness, Lucy has now come down with the lurgy too - love and hugs to her. So Saul is running solo this weekend - and brings you along the two days away from Stonelands where, you guessed it, he does more gardening! But this time it's joining the many garden folk of two plant societies - the Hardy Plant Society and the Devon Orchid Society. So tune in to see what Saul gets up too, and if that whets your whistle go out and find your local club or society, join up and get more joy our of this wonderful hobby we all enjoy!
