Hillingdon: Seeds, Eucomis and Pineapple Lillies

Hillingdon: Seeds, Eucomis and Pineapple Lillies

By BBC Radio 4

What plant have you killed the most? How do I encourage my pineapple lily to flower? What plant would you take with you to your island paradise?

Kathy Clugston and her team of horticultural champions are in Hillingdon, to solve the gardening grievances of the audience. On the panel this week are proud plantsman Matthew Biggs, house plants expert Anne Swithinbank, and ethnobotanist James Wong.

Later in the programme, Dr Chris Thorogood is on hand to sew the seeds of knowledge as he educates us on all things seedlings, tackling topics such as what they are, how they grow and how to encourage them to grow healthily.
