Learn from gardening experts in an interactive plot

18:06:20 3rd June 2010

Visitors to BBC Gardeners' World Live will be able to sit among plants, garden sheds and a greenhouse in an interactive garden.

Gardening fans can pick up tips from experts about how to grow fruit and veg in the Grow Your Own Garden, designed by Adam Frost.

Frost is a designer who has won a gold medal at the Chelsea Flower Show twice and became a member of the board for the Horticultural Trade Authority in 2008.

He said: "I am delighted to be involved once again with Gardeners' World Live, and in particular to re-enforce what I strongly believe in – that gardening is accessible to anyone, you don't have to be an expert."

Gardening experts such as Alan Titchmarsh, Monty Don and Carol Klein will be using the feature to give talks and presentations to the audience.

A wide range of vegetables including beetroot, sweetcorn, courgette and broccoli can be seen within the garden.

The interactive plot will be appearing at Gardeners' World Live, which takes place from June16th until 20th at Birmingham's NEC.
