Beechgrove Garden is planning for a colourful summer, planting for pollinators and caring for dahlias. Kirsty Wilson and Lizzie Schofield will have the usual half hour of great gardening advice, including a follow-up on how the dahlia tubers planted in pots in April are coming on, and what to do if you want to get some free plants by taking dahlia cuttings.

Kirsty is sowing a bed around the viburnum that was moved last autumn, and this new area will be home to plants that are particularly good for pollinators. Calum Clunie will be sending an update from his allotment in Fife, and George Anderson is in Joppa. And it's the start of a garden renovation for a family who have recently moved into a new-build house.

It's the jobs a lot of us will be tackling in the garden at this time of year as Lizzie and Callum dish out advice on bedding plants, hanging baskets and lawn care, all common gardening tasks at this time of year.

Bedding plants will be going out now that the frost risk is over, even in Aberdeen. Hanging baskets are a firm favourite, and Calum and Lizzie will be looking at both traditional and more contemporary planting ideas.

Meanwhile, Carole Baxter visits a beautiful garden in Aberdeen, and there is a chance to have a look at some amazing private gardens that are rarely open to the public.
