It's spring, and Beechgrove Garden is for back another season of great growing advice. As usual, we have tips and handy hints to get the most from whatever you are cultivating this year - whether it's pot plants or veg borders, trees or tomatoes, there will be help at hand from the Beechgrove team.

In this episode, Carole Baxter and Brian Cunningham review how Beechgrove Garden has survived the winter - what damage did the storms cause, and what plants were lost to the cold snap in January.

Carole and Brian give advice on a topic they get asked about more than any other - what, how and when to prune? The pair have secateurs and loppers to hand and are ready to demonstrate everything you need to know about cutting back at this time of year.

This series sees the Beechgrove presenters competing to see who can produce the most successful vegetable plot, so before the challenge begins, Brian gives a beginner's guide to sowing and growing your own veg.

Sustainable gardening is an important consideration at Beechgrove, so Carole has a project that will help the local wildlife in your garden, and also give you something to do with the old branches and logs that you might have following a stormy winter.

George Anderson reports from his own garden in Joppa, and this episode sees him planting out a new border and giving his willow its annual 'haircut'. All that plus the usual handy hints - help from the Beechgrove Garden team is a great way to get your garden, containers, beds and borders producing and looking great across this year's season.
