Bountiful Gardens: Edibles, Floral Bouquets & Homegrown Tea

Bountiful Gardens: Edibles, Floral Bouquets & Homegrown Tea

With the right approach, your garden can give back just as much – sometimes even more – than you put in. This week, we’re finding out how to get the most out of our edibles plots with kitchen gardener and writer Lucy Chamberlain who will be proving you really can grow food anywhere. We’re also heading back to Roz Chandler’s Field Gate Flowers to discover the perfect mix of annuals, perennials, biennials and foliage plants for stunning arrangements year-round. And finally, how about a cup of tea? Jonathan Jones – head gardener of one of Europe’s largest and most diverse tea gardens – shares how to cultivate tea at home and take your plants from bush to brew. Host: Guy Barter Contributors: Lucy Chamberlain, Roz Chandler, Jonathan Jones, Jenny Laville Links: Grow Food Anywhere book How to plan a cut flower garden episode 1 Field Gate Flowers Tregothnan
