If you want your garden to be filled with colour next spring, now is a great time to plant spring flowering bulbs before the colder weather sets in. Kris Collins from Thompson and Morgan spoke to Ken Crowther about the best times to plant.

Winter will soon be upon us, but will it be a mild one or will we have frosts and snow? Steve Bradley from The Sun newspaper and Ken Crowther discuss what the changing weather means for the garden and how to make the conditions work for you.

At this time of the year, houseplants aren’t as happy as they are in the summer. Just because your plants are inside, it doesn’t mean they are not affect by the change in season. Low and poor light levels can have an adverse affect, but that doesn’t mean they won’t pick up in the spring as Bayer’s Anita Dent told Ken Crowther.
