Bonus Episode #18 - Lucy and Saul are joined in conversation by Head Gardener Åsa Gregers-Warg of the Beth Chatto Gardens - we talk about Beth, Åsa's life in Sweden before coming to the UK and her favourite parts of one of the UK's most loved gardens.

From time to time Lucy and Saul decided they wanted to record conversations with other Head Gardeners, Curators, Garden Owners and fellow horticulturists across the UK, these will be published as Bonus Episodes alongside their usual format of chatting about their gardening lives. We hope you enjoy.

For the Bonus Episode #18 we are joined by Head Gardener Åsa Gregers-Warg of the Beth Chatto Gardens - one of the UK's finest gardens in Essex. Åsa came over from her homeland of Sweden in 2001 to start as a student gardener under Beth's tutelage, and in the past 20 years has evolved into the Head Gardener, driving the gardens development forward since Beth's death in 2018. Lucy and Saul chat to her about her love for gardening, Beth as a mentor and 20th Century Gardening Icon and also how Åsa sees the development of such a prestigious garden in the future.
