On where his interest in gardening came from, he commented: "I think if you're English, a [[trowel]] appears in your hand when you're 30 like a prosthetic device".<ref>{{cite news |title=TV giants collaborate on movie |url=https://nyshistoricnewspapers.org/?a=d&d=prre19971221-01.1.32&e=-------en-20--1--txt-txIN---------- |access-date=7 February 2025 |work=Press-Republican |page=32 |date=21 December 1997}}</ref> He told the UK edition of ''[[House & Garden (magazine)#UK edition|House & Garden]]'' magazine about designing [[Freddie Mercury]]'s garden: "Freddie came back from a tour and said, 'The garden, dear, it's dead.'
