Sunken gardens, city sanctuaries and sodden shoes

David Maxwell presents the weekly gardening programme, including a visit to Mount Stewart, urban planting in native meadow cubes and Adam Frost’s shrub of the month.

On a very wet week, David visits Mount Stewart to see how storm-felled trees are given a new lease of life in the sunken garden. Urban spaces are reimagined with innovative native meadow cubes and Maurice Parkinson explains why now is a good time to sharpen tools. Gardening expert Colin Agnew is in studio to answer caller’s questions.
