Gardening with the RHS

Growing on a Budget

In this week’s show, we’re zeroing in on how to stretch the money we spend on our gardens as far as possible. We hear from gardening influencer Anya Lautenbach - aka Anya the Garden Fairy – on her money-saving tips. We explore the science behind cuttings with botanist and editor James Armitage. And we take an inside look at the RHS apprenticeship programme.

Presenter: Guy Barter

Contributors: Anya Lautenbach, James Armitage, Sheila Das, Rory Doyle
