Green-fingered Murdo Macdonald visits some of the country’s most important gardens to explore their design, plant-life, setting and history.

Murdo travels close to Stobo in the Scottish Borders to visit Dawyck Botanic Garden when the autumn colours are at their most vibrant. He also speaks to a mycologist about the garden’s Cryptogamic Sanctuary and why fungi is important in so many ways. Roddy Maclean talks about an autumn favourite - the bramble, and Dr Mark Newman from the Royal Botanic Garden Edinburgh tells us about how trees reproduce.

Tha gàirneilear sgileil, Murchadh Dòmhnallach, a’ tadhal air cuid de ghàrraidhean mòra na h-Alba, a’coimhead air an cruth, na tha fàs unnta, an làrach agus agus an eachdraidh.

Sa phrògram seo tha Murchadh a’dol gu Gàrradh Luibheanach Dawyck, faisg air Stobo sna Crìochan, nuair is dealraiche a tha duilleach an fhoghair. Gheibh e facal air sàr eòlaiche air balgain-buachrach mu na seòrsaichean a tha glèidhte sa ghàrradh, agus dè tha gam fàgail cho cudromach ann an iomadh dòigh.
Bruidhnidh Ruairidh MacIlleathain mu lus is toil leis fhèin as t-fhoghar – an smeur-dubh; agus innsidh an t-Oll. Mark Newman bho Ghàrradh Luibheanach Rìoghail Dhùn Èidinn dhuinn mu ghineadh chraobh.
