The Great Gardens of Cornwall

Tim Hubbard has lived and gardened in Cornwall since 1977. He was a BBC radio presenter for some twenty-five years, hosting news and current affairs programmes, for which he won several major awards. He also presented and produced arts and gardening features, documentaries and outside broadcasts. In 2002, Tim developed a unique partnership between the BBC and the Royal Horticultural Society, part of which involved building a prize-winning show garden at the Hampton Court Palace Flower Show. He now works as a freelance presenter at the Cheltenham Literature Festival, the Cornwall Spring Flower Show and elsewhere, writes for newspapers and magazines, and voices film and video. His first book, A Year in Cornwall with Tim Hubbard, was published in 2000.
