Media work

“I’ve been a regular panellist on Radio 4’s Gardeners Question Time since 2009. It’s a huge privilege to be part of the longest running radio programme in the world – 70 years old in 2017. The show takes us all over the UK, answering questions about gardens and gardening, without seeing the questions in advance!”
