Re: BBC must stop dumbing down gardening shows,

From my Website:

Stealing the Garden! What was once the glory of the garden is now color

swatches parlayed by interior decorators into TV shows of such

insignificance, that even Fox News has purpose. Here is a quote from the BBC

Garden Site:

"I have to say that I am really angry at the moment. I have watched with

increasing frustration my beloved hobby, my chosen way of life, the thing I

love the most hijacked by what seems to me to be a gang of interior

decorators and installation artists."

-- Nigel Colborm

"A garden, where one may enter in and forget the whole world, cannot be

made in a week, nor a month, nor a year;

it must be planned for, waited for and loved into being." Chinese
