Ep. 184 - It's busy, busy! The edible crops are cranking up, the show garden plans are in top gear, the roses have been spectacular - what's not to love?! Tune in, as Saul and Lucy report back on their respective horticultural weeks

Summer days are here again - sipping G&T on the terrace, lounging in our pools and holidays in the Algarve!? You must be kidding, for Head Gardeners Lucy and Saul it's full-on gardening, as our plots and patches reach the zenith of there horticultural output. This is the season when we really see the results of all those labours over the previous 6 months - colour, texture, scent and flavour all reach their crescendo as the garden provides us with the visual and edible treats that we work so hard for. Enjoy theses long days and wallow in the best gardening has to offer. It's go, go, go! The Head Gardening duo are holding on tight as their weeks have brought them new potatoes, basil, garlic, raspberries, strawberries - and a whole lot more! Saul mops his brow after a busy but thoroughly enjoyable stint of NGS tours, while Lucy has been busy transporting, potting up and preening the show garden plants for Audley End's September fair. But, of course, we also ensure we take time to enjoy the garden! Observations on weather (it's a given), roses and apples also get air time, and we thank our wonderful Buymeacoffee supporters - you are all marvellous folk!
