Ep.23 - With temperatures set to take a severe dip tonight, it's a good reminder that May can still throw a spanner into the gardening works, so Lucy and Saul have a chat about what there doing at their gardens to mitigate potential damage....

Lucy and Saul are fully aware that the world has taken a monumental shift - the Coronavirus outbreak has left our little bit of the world in Horticulture reeling both personally and professionally. So we both decided that instead of our longer format episodes every 3 weeks or so - we going to record shorter podcasts, through the week, to bring you a slice of our lives at East Donyland Hall and Stonelands and beyond - trying to bring a little bit of spring and sunshine to your eardrums.The fine weather over April and continuing into May has led a lot of us into a false sense of security when it comes to planting out more tender flora into our plots, but it is still only May and tonight (10th) the temperatures are set to plummet and a large amount of the UK will experience a frost, which could have the potential to damage those tender and even some hardier plants. As Head Gardeners Lucy and Saul always have to be mindful of this, so they have a discussion about not only how to protect plant, but how to avoid plants getting damaged in the first place.Twitter links:Saul @GardeningSaulLucy @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
