Pauline has taken the words right out of my mouth 🙂 I will have to have a sneaky peek somewhere on my travels. A firm favourite with viewers, Monty’s infectious enthusiasm for plants, attention to the finer details of gardening technique and easy charm have seen the ratings soar. We always hope for a cold, dry winter although with climate change a very wet, rather mild one is becoming all too common. For years, Britain's much-loved gardener Monty Don has been leading us down all kinds of garden paths to show us why green spaces are vital to our wellbeing and culture. Yet from early January the signs are there with snowdrops and aconites appearing and the catkins on the hazels yellow with pollen.I live in Vancouver, WA and I CANNOT get away without watering (nearly) every night during the hot season. It was made as a celebration of all the good things relating to our jewellery business in the 1980’s and all the colours are jewellery or metallic in some way and the tone just like the 1980’s - brash, extravagant and high maintenance! From the beginning of the book you get a real sense that Longmeadow is a very special place to the author. The sumptuous photographs in the book of kitchen garden abundance and stunningly beautiful flowers could not be better adverts for both policies.

Come down the travelators, exit Sainsbury's, turn right and follow the pedestrianised walkway to Crown Walk and turn right - and Coles will be right in front of you. Monty Don invites you into Longmeadow, a place that has become synonymous with Gardener's World , to show how he creates and tends his own garden, and how you can bring some of that same magic to our own. Monty’s approach is very refreshing and it’s heartening to know that he has created such a successful garden with this attitude.
