This week on the Horti-Culturalists we take a look at a giant of the garden - the Gunnera! Although as Stephen points out, not all of the members of this family are enormous! We’ll take a look at the magnificent specimen of Gunnera tinctoria growing very happily in Stephen’s nursery Dicksonia, and then take things down a notch to two of the smallest of the Gunnera family: Gunnera magellanica and Gunnera prorepens. If your heart lies in boggy gardens then this is the plant for you! 0:00 Welcome 0:25 Gunnera introduction 1:16 It's not a rhubarb! 2:52 Gunners tinctoria 3:03 Gunnera manicata 12:11 Gunnera magellanica 12:33 Gunnera prorepens
