Our gardens can provide a lifeline to bees, and this week David Maxwell and his guests will be exploring how we can make them the perfect place for these precious pollinators. Also on the programme, getting the cottage garden look; David visits Cherry Townsend’s garden in Islandmagee. And why a garden by the sea can create opportunities; Helen Mark chats to Conrad McCormick about the exotic looking plants which can cope with salt and wind. David will also be joined by Averil Milligan and Cherry Townsend, who will be answering listeners’ questions live on the usual numbers.
