We often think about planting bulbs at this time of year for a colourful spring display but what about the bulbs that are flowering right now? In this week’s Gardeners’ Corner, David Maxwell visits Ballyrobert Cottage Garden where there is a fine selection of Colchicums, Hesperanta, Crocosmia and Cyclamen putting on a dazzling autumn show. In Islandmagee, he finds Cherry Townsend harvesting seed that will make free plants for next years garden and he chats to Mr No Dig aka Charles Dowding about the benefits of undisturbed soil when it comes to drainage, weed growth and crop yields. In studio David is joined by expert Claire Woods who will be answering listener questions live. Contac the programme by email – gardenerscorner@bbc.co.uk
