S1 Ep 50: Spring Bulbs: Tulips, Dandelions, Bulb Lasagnas & Special Announcements!

In this weeks episode, Martha and Jamie discuss everything spring bulbs, as well as having two exclusive announcements! A new round of Sow, Grow, Compost makes them choose between daffodils, tulips and alliums. Jamie explains how to make a bulb lasagne that will flower from early spring right through to summer. Martha considers late planting and why you should never plant tulips too early. And a wartime story about tulip bulbs in the Netherlands leads into their mangold wurzel grow-along.
