Just a quick tip for the RHS Encyclopedia, if you don't mind getting an older version you can pretty much always find a copy at a second hand book store. I picked up a copy for £4 and they had about 4-5 more lurking about.

I have been looking for a list of resources to start learning and I just came across your video! I have grown up gardening and am lucky to have a green thumb, but I am wanting to formally learn more. This is the step I have been looking for before I sign up for classes.

Why is the first book so hard to find online? I saw 2 that were pre-owned. There was another book with the same title but different cover, looked older and way cheaper. Is it the same thing? Do you know? Thank you! Maybe it's not sold in the US... ):

Would you mind expanding on what you mean when you said you're not always wanting to advocate for the RHS?

They are making great bounds with their ideas these days... focussing more on the future, children's gardening and climate change but previously they have been stuck in the past with their ideologies, courses and exams being quite antiquated. Their diversity and inclusivity is still lacking which is disappointing so I don't always like to champion them as I believe they could do more.
