Imaginary Gardens, Devoted Dogs and Lettuce Love with Monty Don | Roots S1 E5 | The RHS

This Roots is a collaboration between the RHS and the BBC as they celebrate their partnership at this year's RHS Chelsea Flower Show. Ahead of RHS Chelsea 2026 and the wonderful coverage across BBC 1 and BBC 2 beginning on Sunday 17 May, the RHS and BBC have joined forces to bring you this Roots special with the one and only Monty Don in his incredible garden at Longmeadow. Jo Whiley and Monty Don chat about the secret garden at Longmeadow that never makes it to camera, his make-believe jewel garden and love for lettuce.
