Fifth episode of the Scottish Rock Podcast - The Garden in the Sky
Connor Smith looks back at his time at the Schachen alpine garden in Southern Germany last year. A truly otherworldly garden surrounded by mountains.
Connor says " Number five is out as I recall my time at the Schachen alpine garden in Germany. From now on I am going to be posting the podcast episodes on the first Wednesday of every month. Unfortunately, like all things, coronavirus has affected the production capabilities of the podcast."

Connor Smith writes : "The recent episode as we are joined by Jay Akerley will be the final episode of this season
The podcast has now reached over 1,000 listens and has had listeners in 37 different countries around the world.
In the future, I am hoping to have 4 episode blocks on a specific theme with experts in that field. They would be posted all within one month - to save the month waiting period per episode. A similar format to the international rock gardener.
Cheers for all the support, and I hope you have enjoyed it thus far!"

Thanks to Connor for all his work on the Scottish Rock Podcast - we wish him even greater success in the future!
(PS The International Rock Gardener free e-magazine continues to appear on the last Friday of each month!)
