Monty Don Signs Off From Longmeadow
· New York time
Monty Don has said his final goodbye to Gardeners' World after two decades, BBC Culture reports. The head gardener on the long-running television series signed off from Longmeadow garden on Friday.

Leaving a regular television role is also a change to a recurring appointment for its audience, even when the setting remains easy to picture.

The garden has provided the backdrop; the calendar now has to find something else to grow in that slot.
