When Lizzie Schofield entered the Gardens of the Year Competition, back in 2020, she had no expectation of being shortlisted, let alone winning. Her tricky garden was on a steep, coastal plot right on the North East coast of Scotland, and she saw herself as an amateur gardener. Even Lizzie’s partner Malcolm told her it wasn’t worth entering, but much to Lizzie’s surprise, she won – and in addition, secured the People’s Choice award too. Since then, her gardening adventures have bloomed along with her own confidence as a gardener. In this podcast, she shares how her life, and her gardening, has changed since winning the competition.
