Monty Don of the BBC's Gardeners' World described Tony as a garden designer with 'extraordinary sureness of touch'. In the summer of 2014 Tony designed a roof garden for retailer John Lewis's 150th anniversary celebrations at its flagship Oxford Street store in London and another in the summer of 2016.
