Hello and welcome back to a brand-new season - we’re back for a whopping sixth season of the podcast with new guests and brand-new stories and conversations and this time I'm using this as my chance to celebrate the amazing women of horticulture with a season I'm calling 'A Celebration of Women in Plants'! Have you ever watched Love Your Garden and wondered whether they actually do it in the time they say they do? Or, have you ever thought whether the neighbours want to get involved? Well in this week’s episode we answer those exact questions as I talk with presenter, designer and garden consultant, Katie Rushworth. In this episode we also talk about what garden trends Katie thinks we could still see happen this year and so much more, enjoy!

Anne Swithinbank - Gardening Royalty!

Hello and welcome back to a brand-new season - we’re back for a whopping sixth season of the podcast with new guests and brand-new stories and conversations and this time I'm using this as my chance to celebrate the amazing women of horticulture with a season I'm calling 'A Celebration of Women in Plants'! Often, within gardening – we’re surrounded by so much knowledge that it's tough to know where to start! For me, when I found my love of gardening there was one place that informed me perhaps more than anywhere else and that was BBC Radio 4’s Gardener’s Question Time. In this week’s episode I’m joined by the longest serving member of the panel, writer and houseplant expert Anne Swithinbank. Anne has been on GQT for over 30 years now, and she’s enjoyed every second of her time so we’ve got plenty to talk about here. Anne shares her tales of GQT, how our attitudes to gardening have changed over time and much more.

You can find out more from Anne by following her on Instagram and Twitter or X where you’ll find her on both as @anneswithinbank.
