Ben Jackson on BBC Radio LeicesterAvailable for over a year
The RHS Chelsea Flower Show, the most prestigious of Britain's many such shows, is under way in London. No stranger to the annual show and competition is Nick Hamilton and his team from Barnsdale Gardens in Leicestershire. Nick's won many prestigious awards at Chelsea - in 2016 was awarded a gold medal for his winning design ‘Barnsdale Gardens - Past, Present and Future’. The garden commemorated the 20th anniversary of the untimely death of his father Geoff, who founded Barnsdale Gardens during his time as a much-loved presenter of the BBC's Gardeners’ World. Nick has been showing Ben Jackson around Barnsdale to reveal what's on display this summer.
