About this listen

Time to start planning for Spring Colour.

In today's episode of Big Garden Little Garden we talk colour and how to use it to create show-stopping, displays of tulips.

We also catch up about jobs we've been doing in our gardens and discuss an interesting aspect to prolonging the length of the Antirrhinum cutting season.

As promised, Geraldine has listed some Tulip Recipes below to match the named colour combinations that Claire discusses in the podcast.

She has also included a list of Double Tulips (Claire's favourite), as well as some suggested links to help get you started with tulip planning and purchasing.

Enjoy!
