Planting all over the world with Lullingstone Castle's Tom Hart Dyke

Famous for having been kidnapped in 2000 in Columbia during a plant hunting expedition, Hart Dyke stayed sane by collecting orchids and other jungle plants which later formed part of the design of World Garden in the form of a world map which he and an army of volunteers look after at Lullingstone Castle in Kent. Tom tells the Horticulture Week Podcast about the challenges of tending his World Garden, the effects of climate change and his view on peat. He discusses his return to Colombia, his cousin TV's Miranda Hart, and his joy at the rise of the houseplant...and reveals his desert island plant. Hosted on Acast.
