S3 Ep7: July - Climate change ready gardening
Update: 2023-07-05
Description
In this month’s podcast, our Head Gardener Emma O’Neill gives us a backstage tour of her brilliant Backyard Biodiversity show garden at Gardeners’ World Live – and the take aways to use in your own garden.
Emma talks to Fiona about the climate-change focus of the silver award-winning garden, which gave gardeners inspiring ideas to help their garden better withstand drought and flooding.
She shares the benefits of permeable paths and gravel gardens for absorbing run off. And growing a short flowering lawn – with beneficial plants - for attracting insects. Fiona and Emma also discuss how low hedges of lavender and herbs can function as pollinator corridors, and which wildlife habitats can be slotted into a small garden.
Also in this episode
Chris Collins and Fiona share tips on conserving water, the importance of nurturing your soil and your front garden.
And from the postbag, you can learn how to use nematodes, prevent blossom end rot and when to harvest your garlic.
