This week, we spotlight some of the plants and creatures that define spring, starting with comfrey, an often overlooked yet invaluable plant for pollinators, as Olivia Drake explains why it deserves a place in every garden. We then head to the veg patch, where RHS Wisley’s Liz Mooney shares practical tips on sowing carrots successfully. Finally, Hedgehog Street officer Grace Johnson discusses the challenges facing hedgehogs as they emerge from hibernation, and how our gardens, whatever their size, can help reverse their decline.
