Wow, where to start! There's so much in this podcast - as Ben Preston, Head Gardener at York Gate Garden, tells Alan and Thordis about the Perennial garden there. Plus has a real love-in with Alan Gray as they share plants they've grown from each other.

Get set for everything from amazing and unusual Salvias, to exotic Echiums, self-supporting Delphiniums and an elusive Abutilon.

We've also got a question about Clematis cuttings and growing bulbs in Finland! Don't forget if you've got a question for the team, you can email hello@getgardeningnow.co.uk.
