Gardening in Spain

Clodagh & Dick Handscombe

Welcome to the gardening corner with authors and broadcasters Clodagh and Dick Handscombe. They are no strangers to Spain with over 25 years living and gardening here.

They will be focusing on topics of interest to gardeners living on the coast and further inland and will include Question and Answer columns during the series so please send in questions to amgardening@live.com

Clodagh and Dick’s books were written to help the year round resident and holiday making owners enjoy their Spanish properties to the full whether an enthusiastic or reluctant gardener. The titles are ‘Your Garden in Spain – From planning to planting and maintenance’, ‘Growing Healthy Fruit in Spain’ and ‘Growing Healthy Vegetables in Spain’. There are available from book shops Carrefour and via the ‘Our Books’ section of their website www.gardeninginspain.com which links to the publishers bookshop.
