Whether you are seasoned or inexperienced in matters of gardening or landscaping, Prime Video has a quality collection of gardening and landscaping TV shows and documentary films that will both educate and inspire you to reinvent your outdoor spaces. Though most of the programming is British, you will quickly appreciate their expert, reverent and passionate approach to all things pertaining to gardening and outdoor landscapes.

Well-known British Horticulturist and TV-Host Monty Don matter-of-factly and amusingly reflects in one episode of Gardeners’ World that “gardening is adults going out to play”.

Ground Force TV Series

Ground Force

Ground Force is yet another popular British garden show in which a group of professional landscapers and hardscapers creates or transforms a garden in just two days, as a surprise for one of the owners. A driving mission of the show is to demonstrate that gardens should be places of beauty, but are all-too-often neglected. The biggest complaint of Prime viewers is that there are simply not enough episodes currently available!

Similar to the format of the original Ground Force series, the Revisited version differs by how the owners are chosen, as they are nominated by a family member or friend.
