In this episode of the Mike the Gardener - Gardening Podcast, I go back to a garden, that's not too far from me, the Harold Hillier Gardens in Ampfield near Romsey to chat to Head Gardener, Fran Clifton.
I last visited Fran a couple of years ago, when we talked about the stunning winter garden, but today, we talk about:
We also touch upon the very important topic of climate change and Fran shares how she is responding to the challenges of an ever-changing weather pattern.
And for those of you, who think that gardening comes to an end in winter, Fran tells us exactly how she and her team get ready for next year's season and what jobs need to be done.
We also talk about dahlias, tulips, the Chelsea Flower Show, re-wilding, National Collections and lots, lots more.
I think it's fair to say this episode is crammed with helpful information.
