Rosy Hardy - Plantswoman extraordinaire!

🌼 This week its all about the plants! Welcome to Tales From The Potting Bench, a planty podcast where you’ll hear all manner of stories from knowledgeable, passionate and invaluable people who love plants as much as you and I. We’re here at the monumental 7th season of the podcast and thanks to you, the listeners, we’re back with even more guests and this season promises to be even bigger, even better and with even more planty goodness! This season I'm focussing on those people who really know what they're talking about in a series of episodes I'm calling 'Experts In Their Field'. Along with a brand-new season, is a brand-new sponsor, and I’m thrilled to share that I’m joined for season 7 by the powerhouse of the plant world, Westland Horticulture. Westland are dedicated to empowering everyone with the skills, knowledge, and tools to help every gardener give it their best, season after season. Great gardening starts with great compost, and Westland has a trusted range of composts for your every gardening need, from giving your baskets and containers the best start in life filling your vegetable patch with nutrients ahead of a bountiful season. Often we hear the terms ‘plantsman’ or ‘plantswoman’ or even ‘plantsperson’ but what makes someone a plantsperson? I’m not here to define that, but I know someone who is the perfect embodiment of that term and that is the wonderful Rosy Hardy. Rosy is fountain of knowledge, passion and expertise when it comes to plants, but in particular herbaceous perennials to be precise. Rosy, one half of the duo behind Hardy’s Cottage Garden Plants, shares so much with us in this episode, including her insights into the year we’ve just experienced and just what we can do to think more about what our plants might need next year! Enjoy! If you’d like to see more from Rosy then you can follow her on Instagram at @rosyhardygardening and you’ll find her on Instagram under the same name also. Do make sure to also seek out Hardy’s plants online at hardysplants.co.uk where you’ll be able to buy the very best perennials and find out more about those events include guest speaker David Hurrion and those last few tickets for the wreath making workshops too. If you’re thinking about taking things further in your garden and giving your established plants and shrubs some care then try Westland’s John Innes Peat Free No. 3 compost. Especially formulated to nurture and also sustain mature plants for a longer life. This has been developed specially to also support shrubs too, with a long lasting nutrient rich mix. Complete with a four month feed it will also improve aeration as well as water management too! Westland, help you and your garden to grow! ✍️ Read My Latest Blog: ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Click Here⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ 💻 My Website: ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Visit Here⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ ☕ Join my Patreon: ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Click Here⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ 📩 Email Me: ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Here!⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠
