Ep. 224 - The RHS Chelsea Flower show happens with a floral big bang every year, and Lucy and Saul bring you some of their highlights as they get a privileged Monday preview.

Talking Heads - a Gardening Podcast

Spring is the time of the gardening year where all gardeners sigh with relief, it's really time to get out and about and enjoy the wonderful world of horticulture. A garden waking up and showing its early colour and form is a wonderful space to live and work in, an it's no exception that Lucy and Saul revel in this time of year, as their gardening lives start to get busier with sowing, planting, propagation, mowing, mulching and all other gardening tasks. Sprinkle in some early flower shows and the odd plant fair and our gardening life is complete, so thank god for Spring!
The RHS Chelsea Flower Show is again upon us, as gardening gets its 'Wimbledon' moment where everyone becomes a gardener for one week. Manicured gardens, fantastic flowers and plants, amazing skill and a lot of perspiration is on display as the horticultural world strives to put on the most mesmerising display of Gardening this year. Lucy and Saul are privileged to be allowed to attend the Monday press day for a preview of the show, and as ever the pair are wowed by the efforts that nurseryman, garden designer, landscaper and trade stands put on. So listen in for a few highlights, the odd quibble and lots of seeing our friends (and the odd celebrity )along the way.
