He told Country Living: "How do I treat problems in my garden? I don't.

"Even if you get greenfly on a plant, you can guarantee that within one or two weeks, something will come in and clear it.

"The moment you start interfering, you are unbalancing what's going on."

Adam has coined a three-word mantra for gardeners obsessing over their flowers in the summer heat.

He said: "Don't chase perfection. You've got to trust nature to do it."

The expert added that the most worthwhile thing gardeners can do is make sure their plants are growing in nutritious soil.

He said that he usually digs a garden just once before mulching every one or two years - and lets the rest take care of itself.

It comes after a gardening expert revealed the right way to mow your lawn this summer.

Keen gardeners are rushing to buy a "spectacular" flower that blooms year after year - and seeds cost just £3.
