Why gardening on social media is not all it seems

Radio 4 in Four

Available for over a year

On social media – on Instagram and Pinterest in particular – gardening has taken off in a big way. At the RHS Hampton Court Palace Flower Show, one garden tried to demonstrate the gulf between real gardens and those on social media. Melanie Abbott went to see it with the designer Polly Wilkinson. Shari Vahl talks to David Mitchell, the Buying Manager for Horticulture at Wyevale Garden Centres. First broadcast on You & Yours, 11 July 2018.
