Back to EpisodesDo I Have Enough Space for 2,500 Annuals? My New Sunflower Varieties For 2026 & Site Visit From Flower Hub Owner
Description
Hello, welcome to Tuesday 28 April 2026.
Lots of news from the weekend on the plot: all the details in this episode of how I'm getting on prepping bed 4. I've also been doing more seed sowing including another batch of half hardy annuals and tenders, including my new ProCut sunflowers.
This afternoon I had a wonderful site visit from the owner of my local flower hub, Fenella, from the FlowerHub, Cookham https://flower-hub.co.uk/: we toured the plot and talked about so much. I even managed to do some drinks and snacks!
I've also just bought some new rose lily bulbs, which I'm going to talk about in more detail on Friday in my plant profile series. I'm really hoping that they turn out as beautiful (and sellable) as their photos on the internet look.
I really hope that you enjoy this episode. Please come back and join me for the next one - you're always very welcome.
