2020 has been an unusual and difficult year for many, and we understand that the full repercussions of what we have all been through are still to be felt - but with summer now distant and the glory of autumn in full flow, we continue with a healthy amount of discussion on some of our favourite horticultural topics, bringing a little dose of the garden to your daily lives.

Every Autumn trees and shrubs in many of our favourite large gardens turn hues of red, orange and yellow that provide one of the most magnificent displays of colour that you will see all year. However, when it comes to our own gardens flower is still the most dominant form of colour and Autumn displays don't always get the thought they should do to extend your gardens season. Head Gardeners Lucy and Saul wanted to put this right by discussing some of their favourite plants for this end of the year colour bonanza.
