About this episode
In this week’s programme David Maxwell heads to a frozen Florence Court and takes refuge in the brand new glass houses in the 1930s kitchen garden. Ian Marshall explains how they have recreated the original greenhouses and added a 21st century twist. Also on the programme, in windy Ballyrobert Maurice Parkinson is planting wild foxgloves. He says they are an ideal free plant in any garden because they self-seed and provide valuable nectar for bees. Indoors, Mary Doris has some tips on caring for house plants and some easy options for the less green fingered. David is joined in studio by Claire McNally to take questions from listeners live.
