While the lovely Arthur Parkinson has been away writing and illustrating, both he and Sarah Raven have had a number of green-fingered revelations that are just too good not to share.

From a newfound love for the fern Metallicum (best seen at sunrise or sunset), to a new, pollinator-friendly concoction that keeps mildew at bay, this episode of ‘grow, cook, eat, arrange’ is an absolute grab bag of ideas and inspiration.

In this episode, discover:

New standout perennials, shrubs and roses, like the reliable Timeless Purple and velvet glamour of James Mason
How to learn lessons from Chelsea, and design your own wildflower garden to look more welcoming than wayward
A fantastic new solution which we’ve trialled on Ranunculus here, perfect for preventing mildew
