James Alexander-Sinclair and Joe Swift love answering your questions, so Louis the producer has given them free rein this week to spend the whole episode tackling queries galore, from how to save a native orchid from a neat freak husband's lawnmower to whether there's a difference between a sunk garden and a sunken garden. One question even earns one lucky listener a new honour - the Scribehound Gardening Golden Gnome. Support James and Joe by becoming a Scribehound Gardening subscriber
