More about this episode
The first episode in the series visits Richard E Grant at his South West London home. A passionate perfumer, Richard shows us around his evergreen garden inspired by his childhood in Eswatini. It’s a space filled with old film set props from blockbuster productions and an unmissable sculpture of his childhood idol. Designed for multiple generations to relax and play, the garden has hosted weddings and A‑list parties that have continued long after dark.
Each episode also gives contributors the chance to put their burning gardening questions to an RHS advisor. Richard asks about tackling box tree caterpillar and what alternatives he could plant instead.
Coming soon
