Dead Hedges, Magical Mints and a Mycelial Menace

This week Sam Southgate from RHS Garden Rosemoor is teaching us how to rethink garden waste by transforming it into amazing structures for both you and your garden wildlife to enjoy. Mary Coates who’s doing her summer studentship with the plant health team at the RHS tells us about her research into the dreaded honey fungus, and how you can help her out. And finally we share some love for the mint family, as we dive into this expansive genus with some of the designers of the lamiaceae borders at RHS Hampton Court this summer.    Host: Guy Barter   Contributors: Sam Southgate, Mary Coates, Gareth Richards, Tom Howard, Marlene Lento, Yvonne Price and Victoria Stanton   Links: Privet species and honey fungus Survey Help our research at the RHS More about Honey Fungus The Nest at Wisley Lamiaceae borders at RHS Hampton Court
