Episode 5

Spring gets into its stride and Longmeadow is bursting into life. Monty Don prepares for the summer by sowing hardy annual seed directly into the spring warmed soil. Monty also introduces us to the walled garden, an intimate family space where he'll be doing some timely lawn repair and pruning his frost damaged figs. Carol Klein visits a garden that embraces art, design and architecture. The Gibberd Garden in Harlow is considered one of the most important postwar gardens in the country, a space where sculpture and plants compliment each other perfectly. Carol delights in the diverse installments and plentiful vistas and gets lots of wonderful inspiration from the spaces. Joe Swift tackles a gardening dilemma that many lovers of exotic plants have been struggling with as a result of the severe winter. He travels to Walsall in the Midlands to help a gardener whose beloved cordylines have been devastated by disease. (Stereo, Widescreen, Subtitles, 4 Star)
