Darn, I missed it last night. Do you know if it's on again and what
channel? Was it any good?

Thanks

I enjoyed the programme and thought the presenter had promise, BUT he
gabbled the names of the plants and they didn't come up on screen. I
missed several things that interested me. He tried to do too much too
quickly.

well I didn't turn off halfway like I did the Plantsman (the
presentation of which I found ghastly beyond reason).
He's similar, but not as extreme and the plants thankfully stay in
focus. Don't watch the titles if you get headaches though - dizzying!

They discussed costing the makeover, plants that could survive a guy
who seems to have a large stock of agent orange and the work was done
by mates who'd been roped in. Quite fun, really.

Definitely liked him better than the Plantsman. WIll watch again if I
remember it's on.

To answer Bell's original question:

miscanthus sacchariflorus (Amur Silver Grass)

good luck
