A green-fingered centenarian said to be Britain's oldest gardener is taking to Twitter to share his horticultural tips. Ralph Hoare from Gloucestershire still enjoys his passion for growing vegetables and cultivating flowers at the age of 104. The keeper of around 200 rose bushes said he compensates for his weak knees by using a hoe for weeding and a grabbing tool for picking up items from the ground.
