This week we graduate from Riverdance to Death Valley as we enter phase 2 of Operation Ratatouille. In the meantime, we hear about another troublesome African Grey parrot, the UK honey fungus pandemic, plastic eating mushrooms, another planet-saving use for bamboo, what's special about Scotland's national flower, the cunning of lotus flowers, and the hero homing pigeon.

On Gardeners' World we're with Frances & Rua Tophill, and Alison & Twiggy Jenkins at Damson Farm again, whilst Arit Anderson shows us around the Oxfordshire garden of Ken and Jan. Tim Foster shows us his apples in Bristol, we see the light with Nick Bailey, Professor Heather Whitney and Professor Keara/Kerry Franklin at The University of Bristol Botanic Gardens, and we visit Sue Kent's garden in Wales.
