Plant pioneers Peter talking on an RHS Podcast on Plant Breeding Feb 2022
Wild gardening might be all the rage right now but it’s not as new as you might think. In this programme, we examine the legacy of pioneering Irish gardener and writer William Robinson.

Plus, Guy Barter has a ‘love letter’ to snowdrops and we speak to Peter Moore, the British plant breeder behind some of the most successful plant introductions of the past few decades.
