Gardeners' World has been a staple of British television since it first aired in 1968. Alongside Monty Don, the show features regular hosts including Adam Frost, Frances Tophill, Joe Swift, and Carol Klein, among others, who bring expert gardening advice and seasonal tips to viewers.
The announcement follows Monty’s recent pause in filming, during which he shared insights on early-season gardening, highlighting rhubarb cultivation—a plant he has tended for 36 years. Alongside him, his golden retriever Ned made an appearance, adding a charming touch to the update.
Fans can look forward to new episodes this spring, with Gardeners' World available for streaming on BBC iPlayer.
