AN EXPERT panel is hoping to have all the answers at a fund-raising version of the well-known BBC radio show Gardeners' Question Time.
The event is in aid of St Catherine’s Hospice on Sunday, October 5, between noon and 5pm at Wykeham Mature Plants in Wykeham.
The panel, which includes Roger Burnett, Nigel Harrison, Gordon Kirby and Jo Maiden, will hope to answer questions on all matters puzzling the green fingered.
Penny Campbell, a hospice fundraiser, said: £Are you planning a new garden, is your soil causing difficulties or are you having a problem choosing suitable plants to enhance your existing layout?
£Why not join other local gardeners with their questions for the experts and enjoy an informal afternoon in aid of St Catherine’s Hospice at the Walled Garden in Wykeham?”
She added people could even bring their problem plants along with them so they could be looked at by the experts.
Tickets cost £5 and refreshments are included. For further information contact the hospice fundraising department on (01723) 378406 or Martin Howe on (01723) 862406 for details of the afternoon's itinerary.
