Pete returns to visit his old regiment at the Ennogarrah Army base in Brisbane which has been planted with 1000 native trees as a memorial to the soldiers of the Royal Australian Regiment who died in combat overseas.

What a Gardening Legend!
He is undoubtedly THE MAN.
Love how passionate and inspiring he is.
I for one am going to miss him.
I was just saying to my wife today that if I live to grow as old and as energetic as Pete has by following his example in my organic vegetable garden, I will be a very happy man indeed. There will be a tear in my eye as I watch your last show.
Pete, you are a legend!
When I think of the many states and houses I have lived in, there has always been a garden.
For as long as I can remember there has always been the really, bloomin good bloke Peter Cundall telling seed, plant, soil, compost and garden tales.
I am sorry to say that it will be our lot for all the weeks to come.
This veggie gardening icon will not be seen on the tele anymore.
