Well folks that’s it my official last BBC broadcast is done. I’m still out there to help if I can and of course you can join me and Mollie Green on TheHappyGardenPodcast. It’s been my total privilege to have been your BBC Gardener over the last 15 years.

This autumn and winter plant a tree folks; one tree gives enough oxygen for four of us, can mitigate flood defences, store carbon and provide a whole host of ecosystem services. An early Christmas present to your relative or friend and the world?
