BBC Radio 4 - Gardeners' Question Time, From the Archives: Autumn Advice

We dig into the GQT archives for an autumn and winter advice special.

Kathy Clugston looks back over 75 years of autumn gardening advice on this special archive edition of GQT.

As the leaves fall from the trees and flowers are no longer in bloom, there is still much to be done in the garden. Whether you are looking for a way to add some colour into your borders during the colder months or are wondering how to prepare plants for the upcoming frosts – our horticultural experts are here to help.

Past panels share their knowledge on everything from how to get bright red Poinsettia in time for Christmas to how to overwinter your fruit and vegetable plants.
