Bearwood - a podcast by BBC Radio 4

What’s the best way to stop woodlice from hiding under my pots? How can I encourage my hibiscus plant to flower abundantly? What can I do to get my gardening mojo back?

Joining Kathy Clugston to answer these questions and more in front of a live audience in Bearwood are Head of Oxford Botanical Gardens Dr Chris Thorogood, houseplant expert Anne Swithinbank, and landscape designer Matthew Wilson.

Also on the programme, Matthew Biggs meets up with author of the first ever Bats in the Garden book, Shirley Thompson MBE, to debunk common misconceptions about bats and shares how they can benefit our gardens.
