GQT at Home: Cannas and Cordylines

Gardeners' Question Time

Available for over a year

Peter Gibbs hosts this week's horticultural panel show. His experts, on hand to answer listeners questions, queries and quandaries, are Matthew Wilson, Anne Swithinbank and Christine Walkden. They are joined by a virtual audience from across the country. This week, the panellists explain how to move a Lupin when moving house, and share their top tips for cheering up a rather sad looking Cordyline. They also give some low maintenance, but suitably fragrant, planting ideas for a listener's cottage window boxes. Meanwhile, Dr Chris Thorogood takes us to the rainforest floor where an unusual and rare Malaysian plant can be found, the Fairy Lantern. And our Great Trees of GQT series continues as Jacquie Felix tells us about her favourite, the Himalayan Birch. Producer - Hannah Newton Assistant Producer - Aniya Das A Somethin' Else production for BBC Radio 4
