Re: Your favourite gardening guy
Personal view for me, as follows
Percy Thrower he was the king of gardening. I met him a couple of times, surprisingly he was a serious gambler. Knew his stuff & a delight to his fans. Met him a couple of times professionally.
Geoff Hamilton. lovely man and so gifted as a communicator. Met him at Chelsea, like me suffered from Restless Leg Syndrome.Died too young, poignantly, his twin brother finished off some of his projects.
Alan Titchmarsh, can't stand the man, too fond of his own voice & a blatant self-promoter.Lived near him for a time, managed to avoid him.
Monty Don, very knowledgeable and well connected, today's guru of gardening & modest.Would like to meet, we have lots in common. Principally a passion for plants.
