Matthew Wilson, Pippa Greenwood and Chris Beardshaw answer the horticultural questions from an audience of local gardeners.

They also have lots of ideas on creating a beach garden, on winning your local potato growing competition, and on the longevity of GQT itself. And Matthew Wilson discovers the fascinating world of dry stone walling at the nearby Coldstones Cut. Produced by Dan Cocker Assistant Producer: Hester Cant A Somethin' Else production for BBC Radio 4.
