Which plants can I plant now that will survive the winter? Can you recommend a low-maintenance shrub for the garden? What should I grow to get my gardening mojo back? Kathy Clugston and the GQT team are in the New Forest sharing their tips and tricks for the garden. Joining Kathy are head gardener at Birmingham Botanical Gardens, Bethan Collerton, pest and disease expert, Pippa Greenwood, and garden writer and designer, Matthew Wilson. Later on, GQT regular Matthew Pottage visits Russell Stevens, head gardener Kensington Gardens to see the relocated Chelsea Flower Show garden. A Somethin' Else production for BBC Radio 4
