Michaelmas Daisy Special with The Picton Garden - Part One (Talking Dirty Ep 97)

This week on Talking Dirty, Alan Gray (East Ruston Old Vicarage) and Thordis are dazzled by Daisies as Helen Picton and Ross Barbour join them with a host of their favourite varieties.
And if you're going to delve into the world of Michaelmas Daisies, who better to introduce you to them than The Picton Garden and Old Court Nurseries, who've specialised in this plant since 1906 and hold the National Collection.
No matter the height or shade you're after, this week's Show and Tell is sure to have you inspired. And next week Helen and Ross will sneak in a host of supporting cast members to accompany the Michaelmas Daisies in your garden.
