You’d be hard pressed to find a name more iconic in the gardening world than the incredible Alan Titchmarsh, so it’s an honour and a privilege to host him on this week’s delightful episode of ‘grow, cook, eat, arrange’.

We’re focusing this episode around Alan’s love of Tulips and their sculptural purity, divulging varieties from the naturalised to the bombastic, and touch on some other absolute must-have bulbs.

In this episode, discover:

  • Alan Titchmarsh’s pick of the Tulips, with varieties from the subtle to the spectacular
  • How growing Tulips in pots can bring the majesty of a growing bulb into the home
  • Marvellous naturalising Tulips, like Spring Green and Queen of Night
  • Stories of Alan’s amazement with the incredibly geometric Snake’s Head Fritillary and wild Snowball
