A little bit about gardens, and a lot about everything else. Two garden designer friends share their tales, some tips and quite a lot of trivia: each week is a ramble along wherever the garden path leads them. Whether it’s Morris dancing or a gritty debate about the merits of biscuits for breakfast, the gentle debates and occasional squabbles are never in danger of being too earnest.

James Alexander-Sinclair is in the shed

This week, Jo and Nina are joined by all-round good egg James Alexander-Sinclair. Big hugs and juggling, party tricks, taxidermy and truckloads of Jaffa cakes are just the tip of the iceberg. Is he a Renaissance man? Is it ok to make a garden out of rubber and chains? And why you should probably keep your dog on a lead in the middle of town. Listen to find out how James, the original biscuit blogger, went from being Father Christmas in Harrods to RHS Ambassador for garden design. There’s plenty of life-skill training, including how to eat a selection box, judging clients on the quality of their biscuits, and Monty Don’s hands.
