Charlton Adam
Peter Gibbs is in Charlton Adam to answer a flurry of GQT questions. Joining him are Anne Swithinbank, Christine Walkden and Bob Flowerdew.
How should I integrate grasses into herbaceous borders? Should I persevere with my blueberry plant? How can we make our allotment open day a great success?
This week, Peter Gibbs is in Charlton Adam to answer all these questions and more. Joining him are grow-your-own guru Bob Flowerdew, horticulturist Anne Swithinbank, and plantswoman Christine Walkden.
Alongside the horticultural Q and A, we hear from GQT regular Pippa Greenwood who visits Fairweather鈥檚 Nursery to tell us all we need to know about growing agapanthus.
