Eric Robson and the team are in Rutland. Matthew Wilson, Christine Walkden and James Wong answer this week's questions. The panellists recommend plants for a herbaceous border on clay, suggest evergreen trees suitable for providing privacy in the garden, and advise on cutting back a badly pruned Amalanchier. They also discuss non-flowering daffodil bulbs, the pros and cons of opening your garden to the public and the success of Rowan trees in warding off evil spirits. Away from the questions, Bob Flowerdew visits Ross Lee, an inspirational self-taught young gardener in Suffolk. Produced by Dan Cocker Assistant Producer: Rosie Merotra A Somethin' Else production for BBC Radio 4
