Ep62: A Good Ol' Chit-Chat With... Advolly Richmond

We were delighted to be joined by plant, garden & social historian, author, and TV & Radio presenter Advolly Richmond OBE, FLS for a Good Ol’ Chit-Chat. We talked all sorts from OBEs and blue plaque high jinks, to making pivotal career changes and writing books. We also learned about Advolly’s dream garden with sentimental Edgeworthia chrysanthas, self-cleaning greenhouses, private pebble beaches, gossip under ancient trees, and ungainly hammock entries, - all of course being powered by prosecco and snacks🥂Some mentions from our guest, links can be found here: https://notjustagarden.co.uk/gardens/Village WaterReaseheath CollegePainswick Rococo GardensLong barn GardensSissinghurstKewKelmarshSilent SpaceBenmore Botanic GardensWaterperry GardensLloyd Loom ChairsDavid Austin rosesPeter Beale rosesTrevor White rosesMorlas PlantsThe Accidental Seed Heroes, by Adam AlexanderMore Not Just a GardenPatreon: https://www.patreon.com/c/NotJustaGarden/homeWebsite: https://notjustagarden.co.uk/Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/notjusta_garden/Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/notjustagarden/YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/@NotJustaGardenA companion podcast for Gardeners’ World viewers, featuring weekly recaps and Chit-Chats with guests & presenters from the programmeJoin the community for episode plant lists, discounts, recommendations, blogs, links, photos, & more by subscribing at https://notjustagarden.co.uk/ Hosted on Acast.
