HGTV now stands for Hunky Gardener TV because Dennis landscaper — and former “Bachelorette” fan fave — Chris Lambton has found some new broadcast turf!

Lambton will host “Going Yard,” a spiff-up your patio and backyard DIY show, starting in April. Chris and his team — including fiancee Peyton Wright — will trick out lawns and gardens with arbors, patios, fire pits and water features. Peyton will pitch in by helping home-owners plan their outdoor space’s coming out party.

“I am extremely lucky,” Mr. Green Jeans told the Track. “And the best part of it is I get to work with Peyton.”

You mean she’s going to be hauling bricks and stones?

“Oh, she’s working as a Lambton now,” said Chris, who will tie the knot with Peyton in September on a beach in South Carolina. “Gotta work and put in your time!”

The show has begun filming in warmer climes because Lambton, who specializes in stone and brick work, can’t do much in New England in winter. As for his own backyard, don’t ask.

“I built the fire pit because I needed it for my proposal to Peyton,” said Chris. “But my yard’s pretty much a mess. What’s that saying about the cobbler’s kids having no shoes?”
