Episode 4

It’s all about plants for free at Longmeadow this week as Monty adds self-sown ornamental grass seedlings to the paradise garden. He also divides ferns for planting elsewhere in the garden.

With the grass cutting season underway, Advolly Richmond explores the extraordinary history of lawns and some of the inventions used to achieve the perfect sward. Meanwhile, in Nottingham, we meet a gardener who discovered a passion for growing vegetables and plants when she took on an allotment.

Adam Frost finds inspiration and ingenuity when he explores the front gardens in a London street, and Joe Swift visits broadcaster and presenter Kate Garraway to find out how the garden became a sanctuary for her and her children last year.
