Gardeners' World 2026 Recap: Ep 16

Disclaimer: Adam was NOT digging out 200mThis week on our recap of Gardeners' World 2026 episode 16 we finally discover the truth behind Sweetpea and the missing Hidcote White. We also have a healthy debate about what a "more perennial" plant is, relearn the health benefits of mullein, establish the difference between tulip fire and fire blight, and ask why oh why oh why are our courgettes only producing male flowers a second year in a row.On Gardeners' World this week, Adam Frost's on his knees again, before Jamie Butterworth meets with Chantal Sparrow at West Dean Gardens to talk Delphinium elatums. Rajul Shah shows us around her contemporary cottage garden at Le Strange Close in Norwich and Carol Klein gives us a catch up on progress in her place in Devon. Finally Tracey West in Birmingham shows us her garden full of roses with some tips on keeping them so beautiful.🌿Farida Sober (from ep61 of Chit-Chats) is generously offering our listeners 20% discount on her newly released eBook: THE FERMENTED GRASS METHOD – Bring Your Soil Back to Life with Nature’s Own Fertility Cycle.
