In a very fast changing environment and the need for everything done yesterday it seems such a pity that when we here or speak of fantastic gardens and their design that we only really see them through the media or if given the opportunity by brief encounter when you visit, even then you are subject to the inevitable opening and closing times.
With the great push forward to the destructive urbanisation on our small island/world in order to house more and more people it seems that the reality of the the science fiction of gardening in space will be the progress and cultivation of the gardens for tomorrow.
The Organic/kitchen garden and the cottage gardens that once flourished the country roads have nigh on disappeared because people do not have the time particularly the younger generation who seem poised to take over the worrld with the WII and X box 360.
Radical change is needed in the horticultural society and I believe that the way forward is combination of reality and fictional landscaping and gardening.
I for one would now rather look at Top Gear with its humour than watching garden presenters that have a niche for boring us, come on guys get real.
Alan Titchmarsh had the right idea with Groundforce so bring it on.
This industry needs a kick up the back side and make history again rather than accepting whats going on around us.
So you all remember the Green Cross Code, Well this is the Garden Crossing Code "STOP, LOOK , LISTEN"
The comments I have made are a blog and should be traeted as such.
