Beautiful British Blooms at The Homegrown Market


Listen Later

In this episode, Dan & Julia take a trip to Bolney in West Sussex, where small-scale flower growers and plant nurseries gather once a month to present their produce to florists and the general public. Julia talks to Laura Fisher at Wild Willow Flowers about the idea behind the Homegrown Market and chats with some of the visitors. Later in the episode, Dan reveals his favourite deadheading tools and Julia explains how to take cuttings from your favourite hydrangeas. Your hosts conclude with a list of jobs to do in your garden over the next fortnight.
