While we all love a trip to the garden centre for short-term inspiration, a more measured approach to buying the right kind of plants for your plot can help you achieve a beautiful and sustainable garden, with year-round interest and resilience.

This week on ‘grow, cook, eat, arrange’ Sarah is joined by Gary Newell, Senior Horticultural Buyer, who advises us to ditch the impulse plant purchases and instead, follow his simple rules for matrix planting – a method he’s used to great effect in his own garden at home.

In this episode, discover:

The art of matrix planting – a nature-led, strategic method used in landscape design
Which plants are best-suited to create a stunning, low-maintenance garden
The four essential layers of matrix planting – from the ground-hugging base layer, to show-stopping structural shrubs
