Summer in 2025 is here - and after one of the sunniest and driest Springs on record, we enter the long days and sultry nights with the garden looking glorious but always looking to the horizon for a little bit of rain to keep things looking green and lush. Herbaceous borders are set to maximum colour, vegetable beds seem to multiply in growth weekly and the gardeners tan is ever present. So enjoy the long summer days, take some time to appreciate time in your garden and join the Talking Heads pair as they continue to look after the spaces they are in charge of, as well as enjoying their gardens at home.
In this episode, Lucy throws a curveball at Saul by introducing him to her love of machinery. Long-pole hedge cutters, brushcutters, leaf blowers and strimmers are all essential daily kit for professional gardeners. The hot, dry weather still causes the duo to wilt (hooray for Saturday the 19th... :-) and Lucy finds that some wildlife has struggled to cope in her customer's garden. The Ecowitt app gets a shoutout for gardeners who like to stalk their peers' climate (very interesting, Saul...) and the windy weather has ruffled Lucy's feathers, while Saul remains as cool as a cucumber.
