Warning, this is not a drill. This episode will induce high levels of greenhouse envy.

This is On the Ledge, the podcast that put house plants in the spotlight.

And I'm your host, Jane Perone.

I'm joined this week by Lottie Allen, the head gardener

at the amazing arts and crafts garden that is Hidgut in Gloucestershire in the Cotswolds to find out

what's looking good right now in their plant shelter? A not so grand name for a wonderful

greenhouse that houses all kinds of delights, some of which you'll have heard of, others of which

will blow your tiny mind. And we'll update on the On the Ledge sew along, and I'm answering a

question, appropriately enough, in the

run up to Valentine's Day, about the string of hearts.

Quick reminder, there's no show next week, but I am going to be guesting in another couple of

podcasts, so do keep an eye on my social media. I'll be

putting those out on Twitter, Facebook and Instagram as they are launched. So if you're

missing my voice next week, you can still hear it. And I'm also going to be joining in with

the house plant Zoom series for Terrain in the US. On February the 25th at

4pm Eastern Standard Time, you can hear me talking with Melissa Lowry, who's a buyer, an enthusiastic

plant parent. And we're going to be talking about the trends coming up for the house plant world

this year and answering your

questions. There's a $10 suggested donation to a local organisation that's a non-profit

helping urban farmers. So check out the show notes for details of that Zoom. You can join me at

4pm on the 25th of February for a really interesting

chat about the future of houseplants. Thanks to those of you who've left reviews recently.
