Description

This week we head to the Sussex South Downs to explore RHS Partner Garden, Denmans – and hear about its unique history intertwined with the lives of two unsung garden pioneers, Joyce Robinson and John Brookes. We also bring you top tips for the perfect blueberry harvest and we talk to Plant Heritage about the gaps in their collections and what they’re on the lookout for. 


Host: Jenny Laville 


Contributors: Gwendolyn van Paasschen, Pavlina Kapsalis, Gwen Hines
