Description
Robyn and Jamie are joined by TV's Alan Gardner aka The Autistic Gardener.
Alan was initially diagnosed by an education specialist after taking his son to be tested for dyslexia. Though it was randomly sprung on him, the diagnosis was not a big surprise.
At an early age, the pink-haired presenter found a love for gardening which, over time, turned into a love for garden design and a career.
Alan says that contrary to the popular stereotype, he's not a typical autistic person because he doesn't fear change, he embraces it. And he likes loud noises too.
with Robyn Steward, Jamie Knight and Lion.
