Toby Buckland is Gardeners' World's exciting new lead presenter and every week he inspires and entertains over two million viewers, demonstrating the skills you need to create and enjoy the garden of your dreams. According to Toby we are all born gardeners, and in this practical companion to the flagship TV show he tells us how.

Viewing the garden as an endless list of chores takes all the joy out of it. In this brilliant new guide Toby encourages us to see the garden holistically as a body which is connected to the kitchen, the compost heap and the world beyond, turning it into an adventure. It becomes a workshop to fashion an apple press from bits of skip-scavenged timber, or a warm greenhouse sanctuary. A tree isn’t just something which drops leaves to sweep up but a support for a rope-swing. Borders aren’t just for weeding, they’re for strawberries by the punnet-load and a runner-bean-wigwam den.

The GW Practical Gardening Handbook offers Toby’s own hands-on and rewarding route to crafting your own paradise. It will be an essential source of inspiration and expertise for gardeners of all skills all over the country.
