Creating cover, keeping the courgettes coming, and compost with Charles Dowding

About this episode

David Maxwell heads to a cottage garden on the Ards Peninsula created by a couple over the last 10 years. With their dream now a reality, they recently opened the garden for a month under the National Garden Scheme. In County Meath, David returns to Rosie Maye’s garden for the second part of a chat about her diverse collection of roses. Designer Johnny Knox joins David in studio to discuss creating cover in the garden when the showers keep coming and market gardener Charles Dowding says no to digging and yes to composting. Ann Fitzsimmons will also join David in studio to answer questions live.
