In this episode, designer and gardener Isabel Bannerman – whose projects include the private garden of King Charles at Highgrove, and Arundel Castle – describes what she would have to include in her dream garden, from a woodland stream setting and scented shrubs such as mock orange, to elm trees and rambling roses, a place to sit and a greenhouse. Discover why she thinks naturalistic planting looks like hard work, how she is no good at growing vegetables and where she would go in a time machine.
