Hope you’re right about Adam Frost Merlotgran and yes I meant Francis Tophill. Monty is lovely and of course he knows about gardening, but I always find myself learning more with Adam, who often sadly seemed to get hard landscaping gigs last season, which was such a waste of his gardening skills.
I think Monty deserves a change, he has been slogging away at Long Meadow for too long, there’s hardly any room left to plant anything new! And you never get a wide perspective of the garden, just tunnels. I think a lawn creates a meditative breathing space in a garden however big or small and sets of beautifully any flowers and shrubs grown. There are many of us who have moved from cities recently, who need solid basic gardening skills every week, along with keeping colour going all year, planting up borders, when and how to prune, when to plant brassicas and how to protect them and tips about lawn care etc etc I am afraid GW concentrates too much on the tropical jungle (even in the viewers excerpts) So many of our friends agree, that there is not enough on how to create a beautiful English garden however big or small. Happy gardening everyone..!
