Even great gardeners like Monty Don are always learning and always experimenting.

This extensively revised new edition of his Complete Gardener, first published in 2003, brings you right up-to-date on how Monty gardens today - and his recommendations for you. 

The most comprehensive, practical, and highly illustrated book Monty has ever written, it covers what he believes are the most important aspects of gardening. Organic techniques have always been at the core of his practice, but this new edition picks up on another key principle: the need to provide habitats in your garden for local wildlife.

Over half of the photographs in this new edition will be new, taken over a year in his Long Meadow garden, and he is going through the text with a fine-tooth comb to ensure everything he says reflects his latest approach.
Monty Don O.B.E. is the UK's leading garden writer and broadcaster. He has been lead presenter of Gardeners' World since 2003 and since 2011 the programme has come from his own garden, Longmeadow, in Herefordshire. He has written a weekly gardening column for the Daily Mail since 2004, and published over 20 books, including the bestsellers The Gardening Book, Gardening at Longmeadow, and Venetian Gardens. Japanese Gardens, his book with Derry Moore, was shortlisted for the Edward Stanford Travel Writing Award.

DERRY MOORE is an acclaimed photographer known for his images of gardens, houses, and architectural interiors and also for his portraits. His photographs have been reproduced in numerous magazines including Architectural Digest, Vogue, Town and Country and he has published several books including Horses, The English Room, and several books with Monty Don, including Great Gardens of Italy, Paradise Gardens, Japanese Gardens, American Gardens and Venetian Gardens.
