Ep. 179 - Don't panic!! This time of year can leave gardeners feeling frazzled and torn between jobs, so how do Saul and Lucy survive this "May madness"? Plus, the Chelsea Flower Show is on the horizon - Lucy and Saul both have plans to be there.

from Talking Heads - a Gardening Podcast · host Lucy Chamberlain and Saul Walker

What is that on the horizon - well, it's Spring of course. The klaxon for warmer, longer days is finally sounding and Head Gardeners Saul and Lucy are looking forward to it immensely. Spring is a wonderful time of year but also incredibly busy for all professional gardeners up and down the country as the gardens come alive with colour, texture and the occasional weed! Join them both as they navigate this beautiful time of year, bringing you the sights and sounds of Stonelands and East Donyland, as well as their home gardens and beyond.Hold onto those horticultural reins and steer her steady - May madness has hit! Both Saul and Lucy are feeling the pressure of spring, what with shows, seedlings, sunshine, rainfall (and subsequently, LOTS of weeds!). So, how do the Head Gardener duo navigate the bombardment of jobs? By taking a few deep breaths! And also remembering to take time out to enjoy why we are all here in the first place, to garden. We also have exciting Chelsea Flower Show plans, as Lucy helps build a show garden for the first time, and Saul then joins her for the marvel that is Monday Press Day.Twitter link:Saul @GardeningSaulInstagram link:Lucy @HeadGardenerLCIntro and Outro music from https://filmmusic.io"Fireflies and Stardust" by Kevin MacLeod (https://incompetech.com)License: CC BY (http://creativecommons.org/licenses/by/4.0/) Support the show
