Peter Thoday

Peter Ralph Thoday (1934–2023) was a horticulturalist and television presenter. He was president of the Institute of Horticulture from 1994 to 1996. He was awarded the Veitch Memorial Medal by the Royal Horticultural Society in 2003 and the Victoria Medal of Honour in 2022. His father was the head gardener of St John's College, Cambridge and so he studied horticulture as a student at the university's botanic garden.
