Monty: Britons losing plot over gardens abroad

|November 16, 2023
MONTY Don has warned British gardeners against being "arrogant" when travelling abroad.

He warned travellers to be careful about judging other gardens around the world against British ideas.
The Gardeners' World presenter, 68, said: "When you travel and see what gardens mean, the thing you have to be very careful about is not to apply your system of value judgments, morality and culture on to one that doesn't share those morals or culture, or even history.
