It's our half century episode and to celebrate we have our very first Gardeners' World presenter!🎉🕺 Nick Macer from Pan Global Plants presented a series of episodes in 2016 and he joins us as we travel back in time to a little schoolboy Nick still finding his feet, through to a big adult Nick owning one of the most celebrated specialist plant nurseries in the UK. We also hear about plant hunting, why Mexico and south west China have such rich flora, poison dart frogs, forest bathing, Nick's until now unrealised love of fairy-lights, and some very good news for bamboo.
