Will dividing a large plant help bring it back to life? What’s the story behind the Norwegian spruce that each year adorns Trafalgar Square in London? And how do you encourage a cactus to flower? Joining Kathy Clugston to solve your horticultural conundrums are grow-your-own expert Bob Flowerdew, designer Matthew Wilson and orchid enthusiast Anne Swithinbank. Each year for 75 years the people of Norway have gifted the UK a large Christmas tree. Gardener Matt Biggs and GQT producer Dan Cocker head to Trafalgar Square to discover the origin story of this tradition. Sharing in the history are the UK Ambassador to Norway, Richard Wood, and Mayor of Oslo, Marianne Borgen. They also turn to expert Matthew Pottage for debunking what makes a “good tree”. Producer: Bethany Hocken Assistant Producer: Aniya Das Executive Producer: Louisa Field A Somethin' Else production for BBC Radio 4
