Loose Allotments

Andy Garland and Steve Bradley answer gardening questions on 08459 811111 (local rate).

Loose Allotments near Maidstone are celebrating the publication of a new book chronicling their history across three centuries. Called Broad Beans and Great Escapes, Steve and Andy hear from the author Molly Proctor.

Rather than visit the garden centre, we find out if eBay is the new way to buy plants. One Kent nurseryman Michael Pateman from Sittingbourne is having success using the online auction site particularly after he was featured in a national newspaper last weekend.

And the team catch up with Kent's Garden Doctor Jamie Robinson at the RHS Halls in London. Jamie talks about the new compost trials he's conducting at East Malling in Kent.
