On this recap of Gardeners' World 2026 Episode 4, we consider how Alla Olkhovska and her family are coping in Kharkiv, given the latest world events and subsequent rising fuel prices.
We also delve a little deeper into how to avoid dehydration in the desert, how our own wisdom teeth can be an insurance against future health problems, which surprising animals are now recognised as sentient beings by the UK Animal Welfare Act, how \"fake rock\" was once used in gardens across the UK, and what happens if you burp in space.
On Gardeners' World, Ashley Edwards gives us a tour of the beautiful Leondardslee Garden in West Sussex, and Hati Colvin in Llandeilo shows us her cut flower farm, The Dahlia Wood Ltd. Tom Stimpson in Ely gives some tips on growing a garden in pots, and Owen, Emily and Leo Driscoll show us some wonderful treasures in their garden in Macclesfield.
In our Chit-Chat-Catch-Up this week, we salivate over Geoff Stonebanks' cakes being prep'd for his garden opening through the NGS. We also imagine enjoying one of the two horticultural apprenticeship positions being offered at Ventnor Botanic Garden, as announced by Wayne Williams last week.
🌿We also remind our listeners that Dan Stearne from Dan's Plants is giving a 10% discount on all his plants with our exclusive code NJAG10 - just in time for some spring planting🌸
