Is Sitting Down the Most Important Thing in Garden Design?

The James & Joe Garden Show
The podcast that rips up the horticultural rulebook and plants something far more entertaining. Every Tuesday, James Alexander-Sinclair and Joe Swift take on a garden topic, from the sensible to the completely ridiculous, with sharp opinions, 40 years’ worth of stories and a cheerful habit of wandering off-topic. Members of The Garden Collective get every episode without the adverts, plus bonus episodes recorded only for them. Dull questions and dead plants still not accepted.

What's the Point of WASPS? (And Ticks, Midges and Chicken Mites)

Question Time: Feeding an RHS Judge, Time Travel & the Lords of Landscape
An RHS judge is coming to lunch on Saturday. You have one afternoon. Do you tidy the garden, or cook something delicious? Cue a deep sigh — the answer turns out to have almost nothing to do with gardening.
