Year-round herbs, pruning blackcurrants and wrapping up for winter
David Maxwell presents the weekly gardening programme, including how to keep herbs going all year round, pruning blackcurrants and wrapping up the garden for winter.
The weather might be wintry, but the good news is we can all enjoy home grown herbs year-round. This week, David Maxwell finds out how Claire Woods keeps a fresh supply growing through the winter months. He joins Klaus Laitenberger at the community garden in Bundoran where he’s pruning the blackcurrants. Cherry Townsend is on hand to answer questions from listeners and she joins David for a trip to Brendan Little’s woodland copse, where he wants to introduce some plants that love life beneath the canopy. RHS curator, Matthew Pottage has advice on wrapping up tender plants for winter and there’s a surprise call for an unsung gardening hero. Contact the programme on gardenerscorner@bbc.co.uk
