Welcome to The James & Joe Garden Show - the podcast that rips up the horticultural rulebook and plants something far more entertaining. Join James Alexander-Sinclair and Joe Swift every week where they tackle a garden topic, from the sensible to the completely ridiculous, armed with sharp opinions, 40 years’ worth of stories and a habit of wandering wildly off-topic.
Listeners can also send in their weird and wonderful garden questions for the chance to win our treasured mascot - the Scribehound gnome, Jekyll. Our only two rules? No dead plants and no dull questions.
As part of The Garden Collective - a place where leading experts share unfiltered gardening wisdom every single day - you can subscribe to get ad-free listening, bonus episodes, special access to live events, written articles from garden experts and so much more.

With barely an A level to rub between them, hosts James and Joe admit they fell into gardening as a career. They discuss their unorthodox routes into horticulture, why maintenance gardeners are underrated and what they'd do differently if they could have their time again. Plus our hosts discuss your gnome-worthy listener questions, including whether plants like being talked to, whether worm farming is worth the bother, and why an axe comes in handy for just one type of plant propagation.
