I love the depth of topic and format. It would be great if this series was continued and expanded.

Refresher course
I keep coming back to this series as a botanical refresher course. It’s so rare for me to get to visit Kew, so it’s such a pleasure to get to wander around the place alongside its gardeners, arboriculturists, scientists and artists.

Great Podcast
Brilliant little podcast, I read the book which was given as a gift. Excellently compliments the book. Would highly recommend to any horticulturalist, scientist or historian. Thanks for the great podcast.
