GQT at Home: Sweet Peas and Rusty Leaves

Published: March 5, 2021, 4 p.m.

Kathy Clugston hosts the horticultural programme with gardening experts. Bob Flowerdew, Pippa Greenwood and Matthew Pottage are the panellists answering questions sent in by green-fingered listeners and the live virtual audience. They discuss nurturing asparagus plants, the differences between sweet peas and garden peas, and what their flower characters would be. Away from the questions, historian Advolly Richmond tells the fascinating history of vanilla, while Kirsty Wilson gives us an unusual option to plant this Spring.
