Gardening at Longmeadow

Product Information

Following the cycle of the seasons, Gardening at Longmeadow will introduce readers to the garden from the earliest snowdrops of January through the first splashes of colour in the Spring Garden, the electric summer displays of the Jewel Garden, the autumn harvest in the orchard, and on to a Christmas feast sourced from the vegetable gardens. But in my mind that early field with its pattern of woven fences protecting the little plants, so small yet filled with dreams, still remains beneath the skin, is still there beneath all the years. The Spring garden was made to relish every possibility of the season and wave after wave of flower push forward culminating in mid May with the earliest species roses and the cow parsley which then takes over completely.

This year has given us the enforced opportunity to learn more about the fascinating natural world around us. Our goal is to always have a supply of a good choice of vegetables that we enjoy eating on every single day of the year.The book is then divided into months but it isn’t a book with your typical monthly listings of things to do. A lot of gardening books are written from the perspective of teaching the right way to do things and feel quite strict and a little scary for new gardeners.

Longmeadow is a gardeners’ garden, but this will be a book for gardening enthusiasts of all skill levels who have been inspired by what they’ve seen, and who would like to achieve something similar for themselves. A firm favourite with viewers, Monty’s infectious enthusiasm for plants, attention to the finer details of gardening technique and easy charm have seen the ratings soar. There was one tree - the hazel in what is now the Spring Garden – and everything else was rough grass, nettles and brambles.He touches on a little of every topic a gardener can hope for, each one packed generously with know how. Great review, I so enjoyed the opportunity of watching Gardener’s World last Friday although I was actually rather disapointed at the content, seems that they were short of things to say – strange in spring.

this is when the falling light levels coupled with heat make the rich colours like plum, caramel, purple and ruby red glow richly. is the story of a creative partnership that has weathered the greatest storm, and a testament to the healing powers of the soil.

The Mound has become a peaceful place to sit, which Monty has planted with a calming lemon and cornflower blue colour scheme. Pauline has taken the words right out of my mouth 🙂 I will have to have a sneaky peek somewhere on my travels. Each month focuses on plants that are at their height that month whether they are ornamental or edible, tasks to do and what that month means to Monty and Longmeadow.
