LONDON: Sexy actress Alicia Silverstone loves to trim her hedges and mow her lawn in the nude.

The green-fingered former Batgirl admits she loves to strip off while gardening.

She tells America's Health magazine, "It probably started when I was doing my garden the first time. I’d be out there, and it would be scorching hot, so I would take off all of my clothes and garden.

"And then I would jump in the pool and swim - and I always get in the pool naked, because why would you want to put on a bathing suit?"

But Silverstone, who posed provocatively in a recent People for the Ethical Treatment of Animals video, insists her gardening revelation doesn't mean fans will see her stripping off on-screen.

The Clueless star adds, "I’m not a nudist at all. I’m shy. I’ve never done nudity in a film, ever. I don’t want anybody to take a picture of me naked. But in my own home, in my garden... OK."
