Episode description

To round off Series 4 of Two Good Gardeners, Dan & Julia test each other's memory with a New Year quiz. The scores may not be high, but there are laughs aplenty! Join in and see if you can guess Dan's Desert Island flower and the length of Julia's prize-winning parsnip!


The Two Good Gardeners will return in spring 2025 with a brand new series.


Jobs to do in the garden this fortnight:


  1. Dan - Sow chilli seeds under cover - a warm environment is essential!
  2. Clean, sharpen and oil tools.
  3. Sort out your seed tin and order seed catalogues.
  4. Keep feeding the birds and refreshing/topping up their water.
  5. Plant tulip bulbs if they're still hanging about.
  6. Don’t panic if you see spring bulb foliage appear, and be careful not to squash emerging shoots - many things are coming up early this year.
  7. Order and continue to plant bare-root trees and shrubs.
  8. Prune soft fruit bushes, e.g. currants and gooseberries.
  9. Prune apples, pears and figs.
  10. Force rhubarb under forces or deep buckets.
