Rachel de Thame joins Monty at Longmeadow to give a helping hand, Carol visits a collection of euphorbias in South Yorkshire, and Joe talks to Charles Rutherfoord.

With plenty of advice and tips on how and what to plant in a pond, Rachel de Thame joins Monty at Longmeadow to give a helping hand. Monty also gets up to date with all the seasonal jobs in the Jewel garden, from sowing his collected opium poppy seed to trying out a method of growing lilies in plunge pots for bold summer colour.

Carol follows the trail of one of spring's brightest plants to an allotment in South Yorkshire and a man who has amassed a national collection of Euphorbias there.

Joe visits Charles Rutherfoord, architect and chair of the Society of Garden Designers to talk to him about the unique design of his own small garden.

And the confectionary colours of Primulas come under the spotlight when we go to the RHS garden at Harlow Carr to find out tips for their successful cultivation.
