Into the Garden with Leslie is about gardening, mainly ornamental, and the point is to get people informed and possibly amused by the many aspects of digging in the dirt. We give you a Plant of the Week, an informative interview, and seasonal tips and tricks. Come listen along as Leslie tries to strike a balance between her growing interest in native plants and her love for luscious hostas and hydrangeas. We will discuss everything from design to compost, and lots of fun guests will fill in for Leslie's ignorance of vegetable gardening and house plants. Come Into the Garden with Leslie!
The Into the Garden with Leslie podcast is truly a gem in the world of gardening podcasts. From Leslie's candor and sense of humor to the overall pace and tone of each episode, it feels like listening to a friend who generously shares their knowledge. This podcast has been such a gift, as I have learned so much from Leslie and her guests.
One of the best aspects of this podcast is Leslie's extensive knowledge about annuals, perennials, and shrub gardening. Even though I garden in a different region, I find that her information is almost always pertinent. Her enthusiasm and fresh perspective make each episode enjoyable to listen to. Additionally, her interviewing skills are top-notch, allowing her guests to speak and share their expertise. Through her recommendations on Instagram accounts to follow, I have discovered other gardeners that she likes and admire their work as well.
As for the worst aspects of this podcast, it is hard to find any significant flaws. However, one minor drawback may be that it focuses primarily on gardening in Leslie's region. While she does provide valuable information that can be applied elsewhere, listeners outside of her area might not find all the advice directly applicable to their own gardens.
In conclusion, The Into the Garden with Leslie podcast is an absolute delight for both experienced gardeners and beginners alike. Leslie's humor and knowledge create an engaging listening experience that leaves me wanting more episodes. The emphasis on using native plants and advocating for birds and insects adds another layer of importance to this podcast. Overall, I highly recommend tuning in and giving this podcast a listen – you won't be disappointed!
Both the New England Aster and the Chinese Tartarian Aster are making merry in my garden right now, so those are our Plants of the Week. I chat with Steph Green of Contained Creations who has begun an exciting new website that can have us all re-creating and enjoying her magical container combinations. Other topics include expert input on the question of Asclepius curavassica from Doug Tallamy and some science about mulching from an article written recently by Charlie Nardozzi. --- Support this podcast: https://anchor.fm/intothegarden/support

This week we're mixing up indoor/outdoor lines with a #houseplantvacation. Do you allow your hard-working houseplants a little time off during the growing season to be the plants they were born to be? Just as we could all use a little time soaking up the sun, getting the drinks in, and feeling fresh air on our faces, our houseplants could too. What a shame that time outside doesn't make us look years younger like our plants.Marianne shares her thoughts as the author of Tropical Plants and How to Love Them, and Leslie shares her desperation as someone who wants a clean & beautiful house at the beginning of spring.Subscribe at The Garden Mixer Substack for full show notes, links and laughs.
For those who begin to garden in May with the aid of a smoking credit card, an SUV, and a minion or two, very little goes wrong as the spring garden joyfully romps towards summer. But for those who started partying hard as early as February, the super-sized hangover is real.Where did the color go? Where did the time go? Why do I have a headache? The strength of spring is equaled only in its spectacular demise.There are spring ‘gaps' in every garden, but they're not the same for everyone. This week the girls aim to clean up from the rager that just happened, reclaim that spring energy with succession planting strategies, and figure out how to push the daffodil foliage under the sofa.For full show notes, links and laughs, subscribe at The Garden Mixer's Substack.

In One More Sip of the Garden Mixer, episode 13 1/2, Marianne and Leslie give you the lowdown on this burning garden question.
When the spring erupts in tones of yellow, lemon, gold, and that weird orangey-mustard that you're not sure you love, it's time to bring on the blue. Leslie Harris and Marianne Willburn have suggestions for how to achieve that in your garden, and dip briefly into the controversy surrounding the [almost] universally loved daffodil. From blue bells in the woods to blue spells when you're pulling out Vinca minor by the fistful, they'll touch on some of gardeners' favorites, and get sucked down a rabbit hole or two on their way.For full show notes, links and laughs, subscribe at The Garden Mixer's Substack.

Welcome to One More Sip (of The Garden Mixer)…a short form 15-minute episode for in-between weeks where Leslie & Marianne try — so far, successfully — to discuss one random topic that deserves some attention. But not necessarily agreement. This week we're talking gardening click-bait. The good, the bad, and the what-the-actual-hell? There have always been hucksters, shysters, snake oil salesmen, and dodgy characters selling magic beans. And now we have the internet. What's the best way to approach the clickbait that tempts us all? Leslie's approach is to watch two seconds and send it to Marianne to annoy her. Marianne's approach is to dutifully wade through it and get annoyed. Smart people can do better than both of them. But what's truly bad? What's just clever marketing? What do you believe? Where should you go for good information? Links in the full show notes at The Garden Mixer's Substack.

It's a wild mix of topics this week on The Garden Mixer. Along with their guest, author and speaker Brie Arthur, Leslie and Marianne talk plant propagation, foodscaping, blooming shrubs, maintenance-hungry perennials, and lifechanging illness. Turns out Brie is not just an expert on making baby plants, but can also share a thing or two about physically & mentally dealing with tick borne disease when your life is lived 100% in horticulture. It's not going to stop her -- or either of them for that matter. (spoiler alert: Grey Goose vodka is your friend.)

Much like days when you intend to start tomato seeds and end up digging the outline for the new pond, our bi-weekly conversations mix up topics, plants , and guests, and keep us on our toes.We love that mix, but this week, we're experimenting with One More Sip -- a short form episode for in-between weeks that deals with one topic only.At least that's what Marianne promised. This week we're talking poisonous plants. Do you feel like there is a lot more made of plant toxicity in academia, social media and news than there needs to be? We do. And we want to talk about it.What's reasonable. What's not. How can you adapt your garden? Do you need to? When does it make sense to pay attention, and what is unnecessary fear mongering? From Digitalis to daffodils... the list is long and it contains plants that most gardeners would never do without. Feeling societal pressure to do without them anyway? You need some moral support -- or at the very least a couple experienced gardeners in your corner. Join us.
How much can you learn about pruning when your loppers are older than most Influencers? It turns out, quite a lot when you're taught by the right people. This week, Leslie grills Marianne on her recent trip to the UK and the Great Dixter Symposium where pruning was on the menu (along with some incredible food thanks to Claire Rooney @thelayeredcook Now's the time to get into the garden and prune, and the girls advocate a bold approach (with a little insurance on the side). From Rosa rugosa to Wisteria ahem sinensis (and frutescens), cautious pruners may just find that the pruning jobs they dreaded are now the best part of gardening.But what, exactly, do knife fights and crotches have to do with pruning?

We're clinking glasses this week with Erin Schanen, YouTube's Impatient Gardener, and we're not asking her about her tomatoes.That's right, who needs to eat when June is a feast for the eyes? We'll be interrogating Erin on the flower seeds she practically starts in her sleep, the ones that need a little more attention, and the favorites she would never be without.First, there are a couple topics the girls want to hash out over Marianne's timeless gin & tonic and Leslie's 1990s glass of buttery chardonnay. From what Leslie thinks of her Lomi, to how Marianne could possibly make a gardening podcast X-rated, there's a lot of fun in store.

After an ill-advised foray into AI generated humor, the girls toast another conversation with a large glass of Cheeky Red and an expensively-bittered Old Fashioned, and turn their attentions to getting organized in the face of seed starting chaos, adding some healthy crunch to your winter sandwiches, and painlessly and trendily composting when you don't have chickens, time, or balcony space for a questionable pile of yesterday's dinner scraps. Marianne goes over her trusty Grab & Go method (which she intends to patent just as soon as her workload diminishes), and Leslie feigns not only interest, but intent – excited to do something about the shocking mess on her dining room table that threatens to hang around for several months if harsh steps are not taken. Some seed starting that doesn't require mess, packets or constant chaos is counter-raised alfalfa sprouts – and Marianne tries to make a new convert in Leslie. What Leslie is far more interested in, however, is compost. And she loves her Lomi. But she's got her work cut out for her trying to sell a Porche to a girl that drives a VW Bug.
This week the girls mix inappropriate metaphors with vague certainties, and come up with yet another episode to amuse and inform their eight listeners. Without an ounce of humility, Leslie jumps out of the gate with nonsense about a distillery (possibly illegal) where she condenses her vast garden experience into enviable, crystal-clear drops of purity…and assumes Marianne does likewise. Marianne reminds her that they are both just old — however not too old to enjoy a long, luscious, beautiful, lingering, sensuous, gratifying, fully-satisfying-smoke-a-cigarette spring. Let's hope they both get one soon. Other topics this episode include Nancy Goodwin's garden at Montrose, Blight resistant boxwood, the wonders of The Mid-Atlantic Nursery and Trade Show, and what a bird table or feeder can do for your state of mind. (As in, smoke-a-cigarette-afterwards-joy.) _______________________________________ Full show notes, links, and laughs at: thegardenmixerpodcast.substack.com
Chickens in broth and chickens in gardens are under the penetrating Garden Mixer gaze this week as Leslie Harris & Marianne Willburn move past their respective Christmas viruses and valiantly into the new year. Suffering her way through a strong cup of homemade broth while Leslie goes back to the red wine, Marianne makes a case for why chickens have made sense for her soil, plants, and kitchen for the last 22 years. But why is she so militant about keeping them cooped? Mahonia, Galanthus, and Garden Tours feature in this episode; as well as Marianne's channeling of Debbie Downer for her latest anti-tech rant on GardenRant. Proving once again that if you're going to any event, you'll have way more fun with Leslie. _________________________ Full show notes, links and chicken soup recipes at The Garden Mixer Podcast Comments?

Leslie Harris and Marianne Willburn mix old books, new coats, and the usual laughs in the first episode of 2025. In response to a listener's request, Leslie is forced to indulge Marianne's book recommendations for the winter months; and adds a surprising number of titles herself – pondering the secret sauce that makes a book capture her otherwise 8-minute attention span. True to her nerd identity, Marianne delivers her list of favorite reference books with affected speech patterns; but due to her shameful (and unresolved) issues with envy, the girls can't come to agreement over the merits of Vita Sackville-West or indeed, how many servants and/or lovers she had.

In this episode of the newly logo'd and newly music'd The Garden Mixer, Marianne tries her hand at interviewing Leslie -- posing transparently self-serving questions about Leslie's transition to a tiny garden in order to make herself feel better about the future. In her (self-described) "penetrating and 60 Minutes-esque style", Marianne is after information that all gardeners secretly wonder about in their more overwhelmed moments: Do I want to garden here forever? Can I garden here forever? What does it feel like to downsize when you love your big garden? What does it mean to have a balanced life like normal people? Other discussion topics include bulbs (yes, apparently the two of them are still planting); exciting group trips to the UK and Portugal that Marianne is planning with her travel buddy Andrea Gaspar; and how to gather interesting greens and garden bits without being caught by your neighbors.

This week on The Garden Mixer, Leslie Harris, Marianne Willburn, and their guest, Scott Beuerlein from The Cincinnati Zoo and Botanical Gardens, continue to wrestle over the big topic of bulbs for the benefit of listeners who still have bags of obligation awaiting them in the garage. Big ones, little ones, early ones and late ones are discussed on their merits and – as Marianne is involved – their possible vulgarity. Sales are discussed. Vendors are endorsed. Scott once again endears himself to listeners by commiserating over post-bloom daffodil foliage, while Leslie issues judgement over braiding it, and offers alternatives. Meanwhile, Marianne talks about one of the problems of foliage that has nothing to do with looks but everything to do with successfully pairing bulbs with the rest of your garden. As usual, it's a fun and informative mix up of plants and points of view, with the promise of more sophisticated drinking choices in future episodes. --- Support this podcast: https://podcasters.spotify.com/pod/show/thegardenmixer/support
In this week's episode of The Garden Mixer, Leslie Harris & Marianne Willburn stir up a spirited two-part discussion about all things bulb with their inaugural guest, Scott Beuerlein of The Cincinnati Zoo and Botanical Gardens, Horticulture Magazine, and GardenRant. Whether you're going for naturalistic layers or the hypnotizing effect of thousands en masse, there's more than one way to make the most of what you've still got left to plant, and they've all three got an opinion over which is best. Scott and Leslie inevitably gang up on Marianne's design ideas and drink choices (even as Scott quaffs boxed red wine and admits some of his best displays are by accident); Marianne sexually harasses Leslie and snidely rejects her Bulb Spiral; and Leslie reveals her worst bulb planting mistake made while under the influence of inexperience (which they all agree is fairly common when you're just starting out). And what does a poached egg have to do with bulb planting anyway? Marianne thinks it makes for a profound analogy, even if Scott is irritatingly better at expressing it. --- Support this podcast: https://podcasters.spotify.com/pod/show/thegardenmixer/support
On this episode we talk about the premeditated murder of some large Abyssinian bananas, how Leslie is meh on winter berries, peonies (Leslie protests the look of singles, Marianne protests Leslie's color choices), a good thing to do with excess cherry tomatoes (an alternative from leaving them in unlocked cars). We do several "Book Moments". Who are we kidding... only Marianne has book moments while Leslie continues to rely on the brain that lives in her back pocket. Deer deterrents, when plants fail, is it our fault and should we consider Mahjnong if we have a a black thumb? Also, Black Thumb; is that code for "I don't like to fuss with plants"? Winter annuals, and then finally (it's another long one, good people), shouldn't we have a guest for the next episode? --- Support this podcast: https://podcasters.spotify.com/pod/show/thegardenmixer/support
