  • 43: George Monbiot

    43: George Monbiot
    Oct 18 2024
    Today, Bunny chats to George Monbiot, sadly not in his garden as it is a building site, but we hear all about his plans for the garden, which he is working on with his partner, Rebecca Wriggly. Rebecca is Chief Executive of Rewilding Britain.

    Bunny and George chat about why George had an unhappy time at Oxford difficult, (he had an open scholarship) though enjoyed his course, his several near death experiences, his thoughts on whether Bunny should change her diesel car to electric and where he buys his clothes. Plus ideas, of course, on how we can hopefully save the planet.

    Bunny gives him a present of a Cambridge Gage tree from Frank Matthews. They are one of the largest tree growers in the UK with an extensive range of fruit and ornamental trees. Available as container grown or bare root in the winter, trees can be delivered to anywhere in the UK or you can visit their Tree Shop in Worcestershire. The delicious fruit have a very short shelf life, so you can only enjoy them by growing your own.

    42: Edward Bulmer
    Oct 11 2024
    Bunny is in Edward Bulmer’s beautiful, renovated Queen Anne house in rural Herefordshire.

    Edwards family started the Cider firm, but Edward, having done a history of Art degree found that working in design was what really fascinated him.

    Apart from being a prominent interior designer, he has his design shop in London, and has founded his natural paint firm, Edward Bulmer Natural Paints.

    Edward is really a frustrated Landscape Architect, and in his own garden has restored a historic water garden, created vistas and amphitheatres, made a beautiful tented outdoor ‘room’ and a lock down water feature from old coppers, mash tuns, buckets and barrels.

    For his present Bunny gave him The Good Slug Guide by Jo Kirby for £12.95

    To see Edward’s amazing gardens see Bunny’s YouTube video ‘Edward Bulmer in his Brilliant Garden.’

  • 41: Dame Zandra Rhodes

    41: Dame Zandra Rhodes
    Oct 3 2024
    Bunny is with the world famous fashion and textile designer Dame Zandra Rhodes in her zany 9th Floor flat in London, which has tiny outdoor spaces that face south, north and west.

    Despite Zandra having designed clothes for numerous super stars such as Freddie Mercury, Princess Diana and Princess Anne, Zandra has a very down to earth side being passionate about making her own bread, listening to the Archers and Gardeners’ Question Time and of course creating her spectacular garden.

    Her home is filled with mementoes that she has collected throughout her action packed, extraordinarily successful career that spans well over 60 years. Zandra entertains her eclectic and wide circle of friends regularly, cooking her famous salmon with mango salsa for them - though has been known to fall asleep at the table due to her punishing work schedule.

    Her pink hair is always a talking point but she explains the unexpected affect it has had on her illustrious career.

    To see Zandra’s fabulous flat and gardens see Bunny’s YouTube video ‘Zandra Rhodes, in her plot with its fantastic plants, patterns and paints’.
