Carol Klein presents a series which follows 20 gardeners as they attempt to have their gardens accepted into the demanding National Gardens Scheme.

Worlds End is a plants person's paradise of a garden belonging to husband and wife team Robin and Kristina Pearce. Their private gardens are a showcase of what's on offer next door in the nursery they both run in Hallow, Worcestershire. They are both longing to get into the yellow book, but are not taking the chance to open lightly as a negative outcome could affect their business. Robin and Kristina鈥檚 garden is brimming with herbaceous plants, but there is also an informal pond and bog garden with beds of hostas and ferns, and a formal rill feature. Carol offers tips on how to quick fix a huge void in their planting scheme left by a dead eucalyptus.

In Mansfield Street, Bristol, 36-year-old Alice Hindle is desperate to get her sensory garden into the prestigious yellow book.

Luckily for her Carol is on hand to provide plenty of good ideas for planting to awaken the senses.
