Hello, and welcome back to of Diaries of a Lady Gardener! If you think gardening is cool and would rather take a trip to the garden centre than go out out, then you’ve found the right podcast. But also, you’re not in the minority.  Research from Draper Tools has revealed that over 80% of young people officially think gardening is cool, mainly because of its benefits for mental health and the environment.  Draper Tools are sponsors of the Diaries of a Lady Gardener podcast, so why not join me in following them on Instagram, “at Draper underscore tools”? In this episode I to Mark and Daniel from Surreal Succulents about the plants that have always been a bit of a mystery to me - confession: I’m in the succulent house plant killer club. It was fab to hear about their history, their RHS Gold award winning displays and their most exciting launch of the semponium. Whether you’ve not got a clue about succulents or you’re an avid collector, you’ll love hearing all they have to say, enjoy!  I’ve learnt so much from Mark and Daniel in the final podcast of the season and can’t wait to visit them in 2022 to start building my very own succulent haven! They’re so knowledgable and passionate with an insane selection of plants, so definitely head over to their instagram for more @surreal_succulents. That wraps up season 2! I just want to say a massive thank you to everyone who has downloaded, listened to, reviewed and shared the podcast this year. It really was a dream come true and I’ve loved each and every guest that’s been on! And finally, a massive thank you to the team at @draper tools who have been such fantastic sponsors, here’s to plants and pals!
