Jo Peel and Nigel Dunnett show their dirty hands after pruning the Growing City installation last month - the plants were covered in grime
In the series opener at 7pm on Tuesday (May 11), Jo welcomed Nigel Dunnett, Professor of Planting Design and Urban Horticulture at the University of Sheffield. They discussed their shared interest in urban greening which has fuelled commissions for Chelsea Flower Show in 2017 and the University of Sheffield in 2018.
Jo and Nigel’s most recent collaboration for Yorkshire Arts Space is a 30-metre living wall on the facade of the Persistence Works on Brown Street in the centre of Sheffield.
