Gardening on the set of The Crown, a banquet for birds and it’s time to bury some tulip bulbs

David Maxwell presents the weekly gardening programme including; a bulb planting masterclass, gardening on the set of The Crown and putting on a banquet for birds.

November is the perfect time to plant tulip bulbs and that’s what Claire Woods is doing when David Maxwell visits her at Hillsborough Castle. Then it’s off to the RSPB’s Belfast Wow where Tim McCann has lots of tips on getting garden birds through the worst of winter. With the new season of The Crown due to start on Netflix, David chats to the Duchess of Rutland whose home and garden stands in for Windsor Castle in the series. Also on the programme, Emma McIlveen heads to Augher Central Primary School where the school garden has been transformed with help from the ³ÉÈËÂÛ̳’s Little Green Fingers project and Brendan Little joins David in studio to take live questions.
