Times Remembered: Fred Streeter

on BBC Two England

Jeremy James talks to Fred Streeter who is first, last and foremost a gardener, a man who, quite literally, talks to flowers. He has spent a long, long life building, loving and caring for beautiful gardens.
Baron Rothschild once sent for him in order to learn about gardens and then offered him a chance to learn about the French and Paris. But Fred Streeter was homesick - and turned down the Baron to return to his gardens.
