In this episode Bunny chats to Tony Kirkham MBE in his South London garden.
Tony Kirkham talks about his life growing with trees.
He was voted one of the most influential Londoners in 2016 but in fact he has a huge influence world-wide. He is extremely pleased The BBC Radio 4 program ‘The Archers’ is now highlighting tree surgeons, but is concerned that vast quantities of trees are being planted in a way that ends up with poor specimens or dead trees and points out that in 50 years time the UK may well have the climate of Barcelona, and so we need to consider carefully what to plant.
When Tony was asked out to dinner at Chateau Lafite, by the Rothschilds, surprisingly he took them trees not wine!
Bunny took Tony a great ground cover plant perfect for growing in dry shade Mellitis melissiphyllum, or Bastard Balm, which grows to 60cm high and has pink flowers, perfect, hopefully for under his trees.
To see Tony Kirkham in his garden talking about his passion see Bunny’s YouTube video ‘Trees: Tony Kirkham with Top Advice’.
