   For billions of years our planet was devoid of life, but something transformed it into a vibrant, living planet. That something was soil.It's a much-misunderstood substance, often dismissed as 'dirt', something to be avoided. Yet the crops we eat, the animals we rely on, the very oxygen we breathe, all depend on the existence of the plant life that bursts from the soil every year.

As the weather begins to warm up, there's plenty to be getting on with in the garden. Monty Don welcomes us to Longmeadow and cracks on with some timely tasks. Gardening and Horticulture how to's: 1. Sow lawn seed April is an excellent time to sow grass seed. Whether you are repairing a patch or creating a new lawn, the technique is the same. Make sure the soil is smooth and even, and sow half the seed over the whole area by working in parallel rows lengthways. Then, repeat the process with the remaining seed, working in parallel rows widthways. Lightly rake to cover the majority of the seeds with soil and, in dry weather, water gently with a fine spray of water. 2. Pinch out sweet peas If you remove the growing tips of sweet pea seedlings, you will encourage them to branch and produce more flowers. Pinch out when they are about 10cm (4in) high or if they are too long and leggy. 3. Cut back dogwood If you grow dogwood and willow for their colourful stems in winte

Agapanthus tips Steve and Elaine Hickman, holders of a National Collection of Agapanthus, have given us their top tips for keeping agapanthus happy in pots.

They should be happy for two years. Then repot into a container just 5-7cm bigger than the previous pot. Ensure there is good drainage, with a mix of 2 parts compost to 1 part sand, gravel or grit.

If there's one flower that's fallen foul of fashion in recent times, it's the once-popular chrysanthemum.

Remove any damaged or crossing stems and cut back hard any weak shoots. The main framework of the plant should only be trimmed back by a third. The biggest mistake with shrub roses is to overprune. 2. Lift & divide snowdrops As the flowers start to fade, it’s a good time to lift and divide snowdrops. With a trowel or spade, gently lift a clump of bulbs and carefully divide into smaller clumps and s
