The Summer season has come full circle again, that time of year where everyone enjoys being outside, especially in their gardens on a long, sunny day. Gardeners are still in full flow - planting out new beds, mowing their lawns and cajoling their vegetable gardens into burgeoning yields. It's a great time to be alive in horticulture as the show season reaches a crescendo, plant fairs almost every weekend threaten to empty your savings and open gardens throughout the UK inspire that next bit of work you will be doing in your own plot. As ever Lucy and Saul will bring you tales (and waffle) from their gardens, so join us every week for more horticultural high-jinx on Talking Heads.
Summer continues, although for some it's also been Autumn, Spring and Winter in one week, but is August all it's cracked up to be. Lucy and Saul discuss whether Saul's thought that August is his least favourite garden month is valid. Plus Lucy has been out helping her folks with the garden, we have a listener question on what to do with all those dangly bits on our vegetable climbers and are you thinking about doing a little Garden writing, Lucy gives you a few hints and tips of how to break into the world of horticultural journalism.
