Ep. 96 - Self-seeders can be a blessing or a curse, so Saul and Lucy divulge what they've learnt about these prolific plants.

Spring is in the air - as the early season flowers bring a hint of colour and joy, banishing the winter blues away. Head Gardeners such as Lucy and Saul relish this moment in the year as the starting gun for a season of flower, foliage and ultimate fun. Gardening kicks off and all the hard work of winter enters a crescendo of horticultural wonder.
 
They're a pain in the proverbial if you view them as weeds, yet they can be fundamental to the success of annual meadows, plus gravel and cottage gardens. How do you view self-seeders? Lucy and Saul have a fair bit of experience between them in both cases, so in this episode they ponder the best ways to manage this potential abundance.
