North Solent - a podcast by BBC Radio 4

Kathy Clugston hosts the horticultural programme. Pippa Greenwood, Matthew Wilson, and Christine Walkden answer the questions.

This week the panellists suggest some easy-to-grow Euphorbias, as well as giving hope to one gardener whose Mimosa was destroyed in recent storms. They also puzzle over a lack of Granny's Bonnets this year, and come up with planting ideas for creating a screen.Away from the questions, Matthew Wilson speaks to Exbury Gardens head gardener Tom Clarke to learn about ericaceous soil, and the brilliant rhododendrons that grow from it.
