It’s a must read/listen... I enjoyed every part of this book & it made it all the more enjoyable being narrated by Monty himself!
He has so much knowledge on every subject he talks about that I found it very hard not to want to finish it in one day. Being Audio I will definitely listen again and again :) Thank you Monty for giving me a better understanding in & around the plant world.

Absolutely loved it !!!!!
