🌱 This week, I've joined by a legend...

Welcome to Tales From The Potting Bench, a planty podcast where you’ll hear all manner of stories from knowledgeable, passionate and invaluable people who love plants as much as you and I.

We’re here at the monumental 7th season of the podcast and thanks to you, the listeners, we’re back with even more guests and this season promises to be even bigger, even better and with even more planty goodness! This season I'm focussing on those people who really know what they're talking about in a series of episodes I'm calling 'Experts In Their Field'.

Along with a brand-new season, is a brand-new sponsor, and I’m thrilled to share that I’m joined for season 7 by the powerhouse of the plant world, Westland Horticulture. Westland are dedicated to empowering everyone with the skills, knowledge, and tools to help every gardener give it their best, season after season. Great gardening starts with great compost, and Westland has a trusted range of composts for your every gardening need, from giving your baskets and containers the best start in life filling your vegetable patch with nutrients ahead of a bountiful season.

Now, often on this podcast I’ll feature a conversation with someone that you may not have heard of before, but this week I’ve got a real treat for you all as I welcome back a returning guest, that you absolutely will recognise! I only need to begin saying this person’s name and I know many of you will be delighted to hear that on the podcast this week I’m speaking with Gardener’s World favourite, the wonderful Frances Tophill.

I first spoke to Frances just a little over two years ago and its fair to say a lot has happened to her since then and thankfully we sat down to discuss it all, in this feature length episode! This is one I know you’re going to thoroughly enjoy, so sit down, grab yourself a brew and listen along!

If you’d like to see more from Frances then you can follow her on Instagram where you’ll her as @francestophill.

Frances’s upcoming gardening book for children, called How To Grow A Garden is due out at the end of February next year and is available to pre-order at Waterstones and all good booksellers.
