As the Coronovirus pandemic has changed many aspects of life over the past many months, the gardens and green spaces all across the UK have continued in full glory over the spring - but Summer has arrived and for many the outdoors is the sanctuary from the continued uncertainty of what lies ahead. Head Gardeners Saul and Lucy have still been full at work at Stonelands and Easy Donyland (as well as their own gardens) and continue to share their lives as professional horticulturists, there tips and tricks and their observations of their gardening lives.

Saul and Lucy aren't always gardening you know - occasionally we have to up sticks and use our expertise elsewhere. This week they would have both been at BBC Gardeners' World Live where they are part of the Floral Marquee Assessment team handing out the awards and then for the rest of the show run the Plant Experts Advice Desk, where visitors to the show bring questions and queries, which the pair attempt to answer. Listen in as we describe why we always enjoy coming together this week!

Instead of a physical show, BBC Gardeners' World Live are running a virtual show celebration online - with live streams from Adam Frost and Monty Don, and plenty of videos including Lucy and Saul. Goto www.bbcgardenersworldlive.com to take part.
