BBC Radio 4 - Gardeners' Question Time, Wensleydale

Horticultural programme featuring a group of gardening experts.

Kathy Clugston and the panel are in Wensleydale to answer questions on growing celeriac, cleaning greenhouses and Edgeworthia chrysantha 'Grandiflora'.

How do you grow celeriac? Is white vinegar and water good for cleaning greenhouses? How hardy is my Edgeworthia chrysantha 'Grandiflora' and where’s the best place to plant it?  

Kathy Clugston and an eager panel of gardening experts are in Wensleydale, North Yorkshire to put an end to the audience's gardening grievances. On the panel this week are garden designer Matthew Wilson, houseplant expert Anne Swithinbank, and curator of RHS Bridgewater Marcus Chilton-Jones.

Later, Matt Biggs travels to Dungeness to meet with head gardener Johnny Bruce, who gives him a tour of late director Derek Jarmon's magnificent garden.
