Monty Don, the beloved presenter of Gardeners' World, has delighted fans by announcing a new book and a nationwide tour. The horticultural expert shared the news in a social media video, revealing that his upcoming book, titled 'The Best of British Gardens', will be published next spring.
Don explained that the book took two years to write and is the culmination of visiting dozens of gardens across the UK, from Scotland to Cornwall. It features photographs by his friend Derry Moore. Alongside the book, Don will embark on a tour, speaking about the gardens and the stories behind them, as well as his experiences filming the BBC series.
Fans have expressed their excitement in the comments, with one writing, 'Yes, the TV shows were so good, thanks for putting the visits in print!' Another commented, 'Looks a fabulous book! Please come to Buxton.' Tickets for the tour are available now via Don's website.
In other news, Don recently shared images of flooding at his Herefordshire home following a storm that dropped a month's worth of rain in 24 hours. He captioned the post, 'A little wet in the garden this morning.'
