SECRET WORLD OF GARDENS, THE: WHETHER THE WEATHER
How plants survive the stress of changes in the weather.
High winds whip and twist your garden plants. The relentless summer sun sears them without mercy. And deep freezes put the chill on growth. Despite this your garden is capable of putting up with the worst weather has to offer.
In Whether the Weather we explore how plants survive the trials and tribulations of changes in the weather and look at the coping strategies they have evolved to exploit Mother Nature. Learn how the decorative skunk cabbage operates its own little heater, melting snow surrounding it, so they can be the first plant out of the gate at the end of winter. And see how bees-mad dogs and Englishman all-cope with the ruthlessly hot days of summer.
