Little green fingers, seed sorting and the wonder of winter in the garden.

As 2022 begins, David Maxwell and his gardening experts are getting ready for the season ahead. Colourful perennials don’t come cheap from the garden centre, but for the cost of a few packets of seeds, Ann Fitzsimmons shows how to save money and transform your outside space. Also on the programme, Gardeners’ Corner is teaming up with BBC Learning this year to follow several primary schools in their journeys to create, resurrect or develop their outdoor spaces. Kicking off the project is St Malachy’s Primary School in Bangor where an existing wildlife garden is going to get a new lease of life. Amy Kelly is sorting her seeds ahead of the growing season to come, and David will be joined live by Ann Fitzsimmons and Claire McNally to answer gardening questions from listeners.
