Gardeners' World Winter Specials

There's a distinctly festive feel at Longmeadow as Monty makes a decorative pot for the Christmas table and plants up some wintersweet, one of the best scented plants for the colder months.

Frances Tophill returns to Damson Farm near Bath, getting stuck into a multitude of jobs – mulching veg beds, taming a Japanese wineberry and taking holly cuttings.

As the days get shorter, Monty's on a mission to get us all out into the garden no matter what the weather is doing. He adds a splash of colour to his winter pots.

With Buster by his side, Adam Frost gets on with some winter jobs. He's got hellebores to plant, a sedum roof to repair and a nestbox that is in need of a spring clean.
