Gardener’s World: How I Garden: Easy ideas & inspiration for making beautiful gardens anywhere
In this practical and personal book, Gardeners' World presenter Adam Frost takes you through his process for getting the most out of a garden space whatever its size, whether it's a window box, a terrace with a few pots or a bigger space with dedicated veg plots and borders.
Enjoying your garden is about more than just what you grow; it's also about why you grow it. As well as spending time outdoors, the meaning of a garden lies in what you bring inside, from vegetables and herbs to make a family meal to flowers and seedheads to decorate the house. Adam explores how his own garden has allowed him to enjoy the simple pleasures in life and create precious memories - whether it's coming down in the morning and seeing that single flower in a vase or teaching your kids how to make the runner bean chutney that reminds you of your nan. Adam's inspiring book will guide you through all you need to make your garden thrive, and to use it to develop your own traditions and meaningful moments.

Best Gardening Book
Adam Frost is my favorite presenter on BBC Gardeners World. This program is available in the US on the BritBox app from Amazon Prime Video. There are no ads or marketing hype on this program Adam is very down to earth, humble, and funny. He is also an award winning Landscape Designer with 7 Gold Medals from the famous Chelsea Flower Shoe. He lives in Lincolnshire with his wonderful family. The photography in the book is very soothing. The advice is practical. The ideas and concepts make sense and are presented simply.

If you’ve ever watched Adam Frost on Gardeners’ World you will recognise his voice in this book! It’s very readable and full of good advice for both new and experienced gardeners. I enjoyed reading Adam’s take on things - and actually read the book rather than skipping through looking at the pictures!
