Pitmedden Garden: Postbag Edition

Kathy Clugston and a panel of horticultural experts visit National Trust for Scotland Pitmedden Garden. Answering questions from the GQT postbag are Chris Beardshaw, Kirsty Wilson and Matt Biggs. This week, the panellists suggest some plants for autumn colour around a village war memorial. They also diagnose a poorly willow tree, and explain how to sow wildflower seed through grass. Between the questions, they explore the brilliant gardens at Pitmedden, led by head gardener Scott Smith. They learn about the history of the parterres, and Chris talks us through a part of the garden that he designed himself.
