Monty Don, the beloved presenter of Gardeners’ World, has delivered a solemn update regarding the future of his cherished garden, Longmeadow. Known for his passion and deep connection to the natural world, Don expressed growing concerns about the accelerating impact of climate change on gardening and the environment. He cautioned that without urgent action, gardens everywhere could be “brought to the boil,” facing unprecedented heatwaves, droughts, and unpredictable weather.
Longmeadow, a garden close to his heart, symbolizes more than just a hobby; it is a testament to the centuries-old bond between people and plants. Don’s message serves as a poignant reminder of the fragility of these green spaces in the face of global warming. He urges gardeners and communities to adapt their practices and embrace more sustainable, climate-resilient methods to protect these vital ecosystems for future generations.
