GQT at Home: Trees with Knees

Gardeners' Question Time

Available for over a year

Gardening programme featuring a group of green-fingered experts, chaired by Kathy Clugston. Matthew Wilson, Bunny Guinness, and Bob Flowerdew dispense the horticultural counsel. This week, the panellists tell us what to look for when purchasing a new pair of secateurs. They also talk through how best to use your garden compost, and share planting ideas for a protective hedge around a listener's coastal allotment. We resume our great trees of GQT features with Anne Swithinbank, who this week delights us with a tree that has knobbly knees - Taxodium distichum. Meanwhile, Cherry Carmen shares her favourite plants for winter colour to entice us outside on those short winter days. Producer - Jemima Rathbone Assistant Producer - Aniya Das A Somethin' Else production for BBC Radio 4
