The team head to Gardeners' World Live this week to bring you the highlights in plants and design.

Adam Frost and Joe Swift take a close look at all the show gardens for fresh ideas as well as inspiration, Mark Lane finds planting ideas around the showground, and Carol and Nick explore the floral marquee. We also meet the designers whose innovative ideas have resulted in a show garden made from scrap iron and junk shop finds, go behind the scenes to visit the nurseries who bring their best specimens to the show, meet a woman who has travelled from the Isle of Skye with her plants and reveal the winner of our Every Space Counts competition.

As the borders at Longmeadow hit their stride, it is time to take stock of what is looking good and what needs replacing. Monty shares his tips on how he keeps his displays going all summer long. There is plenty to do on the vegetable plot too, and things are looking promising in the fruit garden.

Adam Frost meets an extraordinary woman who runs a community project in the centre of Birmingham, while Frances Tophill catches up with her allotment. Joe Swift travels to Devon to a garden which has been designed around a challenging landscape, and Nick Bailey visits the restored Temperate House at Kew Gardens.
