In the reviews, Michael S said: "Here's someone who knows about gardening and communicating to his audience."

Maureen B said: "I have a bookshelf full of gardening books by renowned gardeners, but this one is special.

"At first, I couldn't put my finger on exactly why, then it came to me, reading it was like walking around the garden with a friend and chatting."

Grandma Falkirk said: "The book is very practical and gives lots of tips and advice loved it and will refer to it through the seasons."

Ian simply added: "Fabulous, won't need another book."

One reviewer, Mand, was utterly captivated by the book, they said: "As a fresh face to gardening, with a little bit of a thing for Monty and his wonderful ways of communicating, I decided to treat myself to this book.

"I'm only a few sections in and have learnt so much! The pictures are wonderful and the book is brilliantly written."

"Seemingly updated to include the worries around climate change, which is very helpful. There is no arrogance to this book.

"Monty has been the guru of gardening for so many years, yet he is open about his mistakes and lessons learned.

"This book provides a mix of basic gardening tips, thoughts on landscaping, tips for fruit and veg, all mixed with examples based around his own garden, which he describes beautifully.

"His passion is clear to read, and definitely seeps through to the reader (or it has done in my case! ) Would highly recommend."

Yet, some readers suggested that the guide might be slightly too complex for absolute gardening novices, and others noted the absence of a definitive planting calendar.
