Agaves and humans have always had an intimate relationship  but, believe it or not,  a significant part of if has nothing to do with booze. As we've discussed before in this podcast agaves provided to our ancestors with many charms; from clothing to nourishment. But given the fact that many of these relationships have disappeared, this wider understanding of agave is quite hard to imagine. That is why Marcela Sandoval has been researching how and why and with which consequences did humans domesticated agave. While most of us keep on speculating how agave fields looked a few decades ago,  she gets to inspect traces that go back thousands of years.  Please welcome Marcela and the incredible agave-stories that  she has to share.

En el último episodio del Agronauta Podcast, titulado "El Futuro Sostenible: Cómo Un Billón de Agaves Transformará Nuestro Planeta," Arturo Carrillo de Regeneration International nos lleva en un viaje fascinante sobre cómo los agaves podrían ser la clave para un futuro más verde y próspero. Arturo nos cuenta cómo la iniciativa "Un Billón de Agaves" está revolucionando la agricultura en regiones áridas y semiáridas. El agave no solo es increíblemente eficiente en la captura de carbono, sino que sus hojas, tradicionalmente indigeribles, pueden ser fermentadas para convertirse en un forraje nutritivo y económico para el ganado. Además, esta planta resiliente ayuda a regenerar los suelos y a apoyar a los pequeños agricultores, brindándoles productos valiosos como el mezcal y la savia de agave, todo sin necesidad de químicos sintéticos.

In this episode of "90 Miles from Needles: The Desert Protection Podcast," host Chris Clarke introduces four books that will challenge preconceptions about the desert. The first book, "The Arid Lands: History, Power, and Knowledge" by Diana K. Davis, challenges the notion that deserts are wastelands in need of development. The second book, "Peoples of a Sonoran Desert Oasis" by Jared Orsi, explores the history and culture of Quito Bacito and the impact of border policies on the oasis. The third book, "Dead in Their Tracks" by John Annerino, sheds light on the human cost of crossing the desert borderlands. Lastly, "Chasing Centuries" by Ron Parker uncovers ancient agave cultivars and their significance in Native American cultures. Tune in to discover a new perspective on the desert.

It's been so hot this fall that the boys decided to bring back a blanco, and this time it's one of the most special they've tried to date: the Calle 23 Criollo Blanco, made with a blend of different sized blue agaves. Matt pairs it with the Four Roses Small Batch Select Bourbon, a bottle blended with various mash bills. Hear two new online reviews, some geeking out, a tangent here and there, nosing, tasting notes, and some QuickSips™ that require a second go! The Criollo is harder to find, but is still out there, likely with a strong mark-up.  The Four Roses is available for a more palatable msrp.  If you can find them, call your friends, sit back, sip along, and make it a Happy Friday!

Agaves have been a hot distillate on Libations for Everyone of late, so it felt like the appropriate time to invite an expert in the arena of all things agave onto the program. Todd Mulhair is the maestro of spirits at the spectacular Escondido at Centro in Minneapolis-- recently named a top 15 agave bar in the US by Food & Wine. Todd was accompanied by Ian and Nick (his left and right hand men in the wondrously intimate Escondido tasting room), and came heavily armed with so many bottles of agave that it started to feel like they were pulling them out of Ben and Charles' ears. These were some very special bottles, so prepare for a masterclass on agave, and some beautiful storytelling about the origins of some of their selections.Here are your topics o' the week:

All alcohol starts life as sugar, and the sugars used to make agave spirits like mezcal and tequila come from … agave! But the energy source that becomes sugar is also  what powers the agave's ability to reproduce. So if you allow the agave to reproduce, you're also burning up the sugars you need to make alcohol.

The agave has one mission in life: to reproduce. It spends its life generating the energy it needs to fulfill that mission. So ... does it tell us something when one agave takes significantly longer -- decades longer, even -- to reach maturity than another agave?

It’s crazy enough to think that every other alcohol is made from a sugar source — like grapes, grains, grasses, and starches — that take, at most, a year to reach maturity. Most, in fact, are harvested at less than six months old. But agave takes anywhere from three to forty years to reach harvest age. But it gets even crazier when you realize how many agaves are used to make a bottle of mezcal!

Today we celebrate the German-American botanist who lost all of his botanical work in the Columbia River. We'll also learn about the man who started the Bartlett Arboretum. We’ll remember the Agave expert who never wanted a desk job. And we’ll take a look back at an article about the relationship between royalty and the number of plants they owned. We’ll hear some inspiring quotes about the garden and the first snow. We Grow That Garden Library™ with a cookbook for gardeners by an American garden celebrity. And then we’ll wrap things up with the story of a 1916 Chrysanthemum Show.   Subscribe Apple | Google | Spotify | Stitcher | iHeart To listen to the show while you're at home, just ask Alexa or Google to “Play the latest episode of The Daily Gardener Podcast.” It's just that easy.   Gardener Greetings Send your garden pics, stories, birthday wishes, and so forth to Jennifer@theDailyGardener.org.   Curated News Trees Are Time Machines | The Atlantic | Clive Thompson   Facebook Group If you'd like to check out my curated news articles and blog posts for yourself, you're in luck because I share all of it with the Listener Community in the Free Facebook Group - The Daily Gardener Community.

I'd love to meet you in the group.   Important Events November 13, 1843    Today is the anniversary of the day that the German botanist, Frederick Lueders, lost all of his botanical work. Frederick had been botanizing along the Columbia River in Oregon. For three years, Frederick had collected specimens across North America. He had just encountered the explorer John Freemont, when all of his work, which was secured in a canoe nearby, was drawn into the rapids. Frederick plunged into the river and retrieved his copy of The Flora by Torrey and Gray. The devastating loss was recorded in Freemont's journal who wrote:   "In the natural concern I felt for his misfortune, I gave to the little cove the name of Lueders' Bay."   For Frederick’s part, the loss of his specimens was devastating. The loss of his instruments and his correspondence with Asa Gray and Dr. Englemann was almost too much for him. Frederick determined his best course of action was to return home. He traveled south around the tip of Chile and then onto England. It took him a full year to get back to Hamburg after his mishap on the Columbia. Frederick didn't stay in Germany long; he returned to America within the next year. By 1851, he had made his way to Wisconsin; he spent the rest of his life in Sauk City, and he dabbled in astronomy, but he also became a florist.  A biographical sketch said that in his old age, Frederick Lueders was mainly devoted to his flowers.   November 13, 1870  Today is the birthday of the physician, naturalist, and civic leader of the south-central Kansas town of Belle Plaine - Dr. Walter E. Bartlett. In 1910, Walter started the Bartlett Arboretum by purchasing 15 acres of land on the edge of a town called Belle Plaine - about 20 miles south of Wichita. The property had good soil, and it also had a little creek. One of Walter's initial moves was to dam up the creek and create a lake for waterfowl. In the flat expanse of Kansas, Walter was tree obsessed. He planted them everywhere - lining walkways, drives, and riverbanks. Walter was civic-minded. He enhanced the arboretum with a running track, a trap shooting area, and a baseball diamond complete with a grandstand. After Walter died, the park was managed by his landscape architect son, Glenn. Glenn had studied the gardens at Versailles - noting that they were transformed out of sand dunes and marshes. Back home, the Bartlett Arboretum had similar challenges. Glenn married Margaret Myers, an artist, a magazine fashion designer, a floral designer, a Garden Club organizer, and an instructor. Combining their fantastic skillsets, Glenn and Margaret turned the Arboretum into something quite beautiful. Together, they Incorporated tree specimens from all over the world. Using dredged dirt from the lake, they created man-made islands. At one point, the Bartlett Arboretum was the only Arboretum between the Mississippi River and the Rocky Mountains. Known for its beautiful spring tradition called Tulip Time, the Arboretum featured a tulip bed with over 40,000 bulbs. In 1997, the Arboretum was sold to Robin Macy. Macy was one of the founding members of the Dixie Chicks, and she is the current steward of the Bartlett Arboretum. Naturally, Robin incorporated music into the Arboretum. The Facebook Group for the Arboretum recently shared a register page from April 7th, 1929, and across the top of the register, Walter Bartlett quoted Wordsworth. He wrote,   “He is the happiest who has the power to gather wisdom from a flower.”   If you get the chance to visit the Arboretum, you’ll likely agree that the folks who tend the flowers and trees at Bartlett make people happy all year long.   November 13, 1982 On this day newspaper shared a great story about the author of "Agaves of Continental North America," Howard Scott Gentry:   "This elder statesman of the botanical world [is] a first-class charmer when you get .... to his subject;... his love for the wilds of Sonora and Chihuahua, Mexico, ...the years he spent overseas as an agricultural explorer for the USDA, and  how he gradually came to know more about agaves "than any other human being."   After Gentry completed a doctorate in botany at the University of Michigan, he became a USDA agricultural explorer. Based in Maryland, Gentry traveled the world, locating, researching, and collecting plants for the government. During the time Gentry collected, the USDA was highly interested in plants in the agave family and the wild yam family, which contained compounds that seemed useful in treating arthritis. Because of his far-flung collecting (he traveled in 24 foreign countries), Gentry was regularly introducing (and writing about) new plants. It was high-profile work in the botanical community. Regarding his career, Gentry reflected: "I refused several times to become a desk man for USDA. It was a chance to cut out all the travel, but I told them, 'No, not me. I want to work with plants, not people. People are problems."   November 13, 2010 It was on this day that Jane Powers wrote an excellent botanical history piece for the Irish Times. I especially loved this article because Jane correlated the number of bedding plants a person ordered during the middle of the 19th century and their corresponding personal wealth. Here's what Jane wrote:   “In the heyday of bedding, the number of plants that a person displayed was a gauge of their wealth and status. According to the head gardener at the Rothschild estate at Halton in Buckinghamshire: it was 10,000 plants for a squire, 20,000 plants for a baronet, 30,000 plants for an earl, and 40,000 plants for a duke.”   Unearthed Words Thank goodness for the first snow. It was a reminder--no matter how old you became and how much you'd seen, things could still be new if you were willing to believe they still mattered. —Candace Bushnell, the #1 New York Times bestselling author of Sex and the City   A garden is a love song, a duet between a human being and Mother Nature. —Jeff Cox, American garden writer   Grow That Garden Library P. Allen Smith's Seasonal Recipes from the Garden by P. Allen Smith This book came out in 2010, and the subtitle is A Garden Home Cookbook. I fell in love with Allen’s cookbook the minute I discovered that he makes his pie crust the same way my mom taught me to make my pie crust. That little connection won my trust. As one of America’s best-known gardeners and garden designers, Allen celebrates every season with reliable recipes that showcase fruits, vegetables, and herbs at their garden-fresh best. Allen’s debut cookbook features 120 recipes: 30 for each season. There’s nothing outlandish or off-the-charts difficult here. Allen’s appeal is that he focuses on the dishes that everyone loves to eat. My favorites include: Chilled Pea Soup with Bacon and Whipped Cream Salad of Asparagus, Edamame, Arugula, and Cheese Radish Top Pasta Aunt Martha’s Corn Pudding Rosemary-Garlic Smoked Pork Tenderloin Parmesan Pecan Crisps Roasted Red Pepper Soup Slow-Cooker Lamb Stew Savory Rosemary Butternut Squash Tiny Orange Muffins Another aspect of this cookbook that I love is that Allen shares delightful personal stories with every recipe. This book is 256 pages of easy-going recipes that utilize the goodness from our gardens and will make you feel like you’re cooking with a trusted garden friend. You can get a copy of P. Allen Smith's Seasonal Recipes from the Garden by P. Allen Smith and support the show using the Amazon Link in today's Show Notes for around $4.   Today’s Botanic Spark November 13, 1916 On this day, the Pittsburgh Post-Gazette shared a sweet little article about the 16th annual chrysanthemum flower show in Washington DC. Now, one of the guards at the show, who had been repeating, "Keep to the right! "Keep to the right!" all morning to the mass of visitors streaming into the greenhouse was interviewed for this article. And he made some fascinating comments about the show, like this one:   "If you ever get the idea that people aren't interested in flowers, just give a flower show.”   After careless guests damaged some of the specimens, the guard wryly observed,   "Sometimes people take entirely too much interest in flowers. If you don't watch them, they will break them off and take them home as souvenirs!"   During the early 1900s, chrysanthemum shows were held annually in most large cities throughout the country. Regarding the DC show, the Pittsburgh Post reported:   “The question everybody asks, pointing to a big white "Queen Mary" or a small lavender pompon is: Where can I buy seeds of such varieties as this? At the show, over 250 varieties of chrysanthemums were exhibited... The whole greenhouse was a riot of color, with yellow and lavender predominating. Interest in chrysanthemums is increasing every year. National shows have been held every season for the last 16 years, but there has never been such large attendance before." Great post. Wish we could turn back time...

En la década de los cuarenta del siglo XX un joven investigador botánico es apoyado para buscar especies de agave con saponinas en Arizona y Sonora. Su nombre era Howard Scott Gentry y esta investigación se diversificó, amplió y duró mas de 40 años. Su producción de libros nos muestra esta evolución: Río Mayo Plants of Sonora-Chihuahua (1942); The Agave Family of Sonora (1972); The Agaves of Baja California (1978) y Agaves of Continental North America (1982). La búsqueda de saponinas ya no era su interés sino el conocimiento del género agave en su zona de origen y diversificación así como en los Estados Unidos de América. Los jugos de las hojas de agaves que no se usan para la producción de mezcal, tequila o bacanora son usados para curar golpes internos según las tradiciones mexicanas, son sobre todo deseables las hojas o pencas de especies muy suculentas. El uso medicinal de los agaves en México es de una larga historia, los reportes de sus usos tradicionales de hojas frescas y/o asadas (tatemadas) han sido registradas no solamente para Agave marmorata sino para numerosas especies entre ellas A. inaequidens como reparadores de muchas enfermedades. Es decir que no es nada raro escuchar estos usos, lo que sí es especialmente interesante son los trabajos e investigación fitoquímica y preclínica para indagar en sus efectos inmunomoduladores. Es claro que los proyectos de investigación en agave requiere al menos una década de dedicación continua. En esta entrevista escucharemos como la motivación y la perseverancia de un investigador del estado de Morelos ha tenido logros de descubrimientos importantes en el área de compuestos inmuno-moduladores . Todo comenzó cuando su abuelo Pedro Álvarez González en su nativa Puebla tuvo un gran accidente y se quebró las costillas. Jonathan estaba en la preparatoria y fue testigo de la recuperación de su abuelo con jugos preparados de A. marmorata. Desde entonces no ha dejado de preguntarse sobre los compuestos que curan en los agaves de esa especie y otras. Ya terminó su tesis doctoral y ha logrado descubrirlos, la investigación denominada "Efecto inmuno-modulador de Agave marmorata en un modelo de lupus eritematoso sistémico" en fase preclínica es decir que todavía no es probada en humanos. --- Send in a voice message: https://anchor.fm/ana-g-valenzuela-zapata/message Support this podcast: https://anchor.fm/ana-g-valenzuela-zapata/support

Emiliano está convencido del futuro del maguey pulquero, sabe perfectamente del tema y su padre lo instruyó en ese camino. Gracias a que su padre tenía experiencia y conocimientos en el tema y había trabajado para la extinta Comisión de Zonas Áridas (CONAZA), su legado le ha servido para continuar en la preservación de la cultura pulquera. Emiliano es Ing. Civil pero tiene experiencia en la reproducción y plantación de agaves pulqueros y es un tema que domina. Será muy enriquecedor para quienes nos escuchan conocer las diferentes opiniones de los cultivares de agave que se reproducen por hijuelos (via por vástagos -asexual) y las desventajas que tienen cuando se reproducen por semillas. Conoce esta historia y seguramente vas a querer saber más del pulque, de su historia, de sus productos y de su futuro.

Agaves, maiz, nopales, frijoles, cacao, calabazas, son cultivos mesoamericanos que llevan una historia en común y a veces se entrelazan en recetas tradicionales. Por ejemplo, los agaves, maices y cacao son elementos fundamentales del repertorio de bebidas de México. La gran diversidad de maíces en México son esenciales en la gastronomía Mexicana nombrada patrimonio de la UNESCO desde 2010. Cada región tiene sus razas criollas para cada platillo y los falsos encuentros con la gastronomía Mexicana fuera de México podrían ser mejores y más memorables con buenos ingredientes. El tejuino es una bebida fermentada rica en probióticos y se acostumbra en Jalisco durante los meses más calurosos del año. En esta entrevista con Faviola Ramos, logramos conocer de viva voz de una profesional en tecnología en alimentos un proyecto comercial, basado en tradición, nutrición y recuperación de germoplasma de maices criollos de Jalisco. Las tostadas Xica están en llegando a prueba en Europa, donde los productos a base de maíz no son completamente originales, son deficientes o de mala calidad. Según los mitos mexicanos fuimos creados con maíz, en otras palabras somos maíz. Sin los buenos maíces no hay buena comida Mexicana. ¡Saludos a la diáspora Mexicana en el mundo! The XICA products is a project-based on native landraces conservation and traditional Mexican food. #agavecultura #agavelessons #agave #mezcal #mezcalovers #maguey #agavelovers #bacanora #raicilla #sotol #comiteco #agaveducation #agaveducators #agaveSpirits #agaveSyrup #AnaValenzuelaZ --- This episode is sponsored by · Anchor: The easiest way to make a podcast. https://anchor.fm/app --- Send in a voice message: https://anchor.fm/ana-g-valenzuela-zapata/message

Today we celebrate the writer who dedicated his book called A Child's Garden of Verses to his childhood nurse and the German botanist who lost all of his work in the Columbia River. We'll learn about the big chrysanthemum show of 1916 in our Nation's capital and the botanist who was one with Agaves. We'll hear some November poetry. We Grow That Garden Library with a book now in its 3rd edition from the man who loved to say "Happy Gardening, friends." I'll talk about setting up a regular spa day for your Houseplants, and then we'll wrap things up with a little something Jane Powers wrote back in 2010 that I think was just so incredibly cool and memorable.   But first, let's catch up on a few recent events.       Coleus Cuttings | @WDCGardener I can't think of anyone I'd rather learn to take Coleus Cuttings from than @WDCGardener and her cat Santino - who is THE master when it comes to supervising cuttings. btw Santino means "little saint" Aw....    Recommended Air Plants | HEIRLOOM GARDENER Know Thy Air Plants - Here's a nice little post from Heirloom Gardener to help you Tell Your Air Plants Apart.   My favorite? Tillandsia xerographica - “Queen of Tillandsias.” I recently saw one in a wedding bouquet. Long Live the Queen!         Make a Christmas seedhead wreath| @GardensIllustrated I. Cannot. Stand. How. Adorable. This. IS! Just when I thought I was out of the garden... you pull me back in! @GardensIllustrated came up with this adorable project - Make a Christmas seedhead wreath.

I'd love to meet you in the group.   Brevities       #OTD   Today is the birthday of Scottish-born writer and poet Robert Louis Stevenson, who was born on this day in 1850. Stevenson sickly little boy with no brothers or sisters. When he was just a toddler, a woman named Alison Cunningham was brought into the Stevenson home to help care for Robert. When Stevenson wrote a collection of poems called "A Child's Garden of Verses," he dedicated the book to Alison. Gardeners will be surprised to learn that Herbert Jekyll and Robert Louis Stevenson were friends.  Herbert was the brother of the  British horticulturist Gertrude Jekyll. Jekyll's last name was used in Stevenson's most famous work Dr. Jekyll and Mr. Hyde, but of course, the popular pronunciation of the Jekyll name became Jekyll thanks to the book. It was Robert Louis Stevenson who said, "Don't judge each day by the harvest you reap but by the seeds that you plant” And, here's an excerpt from Stevenson's The Gardener The gardener does not love to talk. He makes me keep the gravel walk; And when he puts his tools away, He locks the door and takes the key. Silly gardener! summer goes, And winter comes with pinching toes, When in the garden bare and brown You must lay your barrow down.     #OTD  Today is the 76th anniversary of the day that the German botanist, Frederick Lueders, lost all of his botanical work. On November 13, 1843, Lueders was botanizing along the Columbia River in Oregon. He'd been collecting specimens for three years. He had just encountered the explorer John Freemont, when all of his work, which was secured in a canoe nearby, was drawn into the rapids. Lueders plunged into the river and managed to retrieve only a copy of the Flora by Torrey and Gray. The devastating loss was recorded in Freemont's journal who wrote: "In the natural concern I felt for his misfortune, I gave to the little cove the name of Lueders' Bay." For Lueder's part, the loss of his specimens was devastating. However, the loss of his instruments and his correspondence with Asa Gray and Dr. Englemann was almost too great. Lueders determined his best course of action was to return home. He traveled south around the tip of Chile and then onto England. It took him a year to return to Hamburg a year after his mishap on the Columbia. Lueders didn't stay in Germany long. In fact,  he returned to America within the next year. By 1851, he had made his way to Wisconsin; he spent the rest of his life in Sauk City, and he dabbled in astronomy.  A biographical sketch said that in his old age, Lueders was mainly devoted to his flowers.       #OTD On this day in 1916, the Pittsburgh Post-Gazette shared a sweet little article about the 16th annual chrysanthemum flower show that had just been held in Washington DC. It began this way: "If you ever get the idea that people aren't interested in flowers, just give a flower show." said one of the guards at the government chrysanthemum show last week.  All morning he had been repeating "Keep to the right!" to the mass of visitors streaming into the greenhouse.  There had been a couple of disastrous jams that injured some valuable specimens, and he was quite bitter about it. "Sometimes people take entirely too much interest in flowers. If you don't watch them they break them off and take them home as souvenirs," he said.  One of the most noticeable features of this annual chrysanthemum show of the Department of Agriculture and of similar shows held in large cities throughout the country is the growing interest in chrysanthemum culture.  "Where can I buy seeds of such varieties as this?" is the question everybody asks, pointing to a big white "Queen Mary" or to a small lavender pompon.   At the show this year over 250 varieties of chrysanthemums were exhibited... The whole greenhouse was a riot of color, with yellow and lavender predominating. Interest in chrysanthemums is increasing every year. National shows have been held every season for the last 16 years, but there has never been such large attendance before."         #OTD  On this day in 1982, the newspaper shared a great story about the author of "Agaves of Continental North America," Howard Scott Gentry. "This elder statesman of the botanical world [is] a first-class charmer when you get .... to his subject;... his love for the wilds of Sonora and Chihuahua, Mexico; [and] about the years he spent overseas as an agricultural explorer for the U.S. Department of Agriculture, and about how he gradually came to know more about agaves "than any other human being." "I don't like to start things and not finish them," Gentry said concerning the hectic pace of his agave research after his retirement from the USDA in 1971. Several times a year he would plunge into the rugged interior of Mexico perched atop a mule, just as he'd been during his first collecting trips nearly half a century earlier. [Gentry graduated college with a degree in] vertebrate biology from the University of California at Berkeley [and he] concocted the notion of becoming a freelance biologist. To pay for his first field trip into Mexico, he sent 300 letters around the country to scientific institutions, to naturalists, to anybody he could think of, soliciting collection orders. "I came up with $3,000 worth of orders. For anything and everything, for an embryo of a white-tailed deer, which I did collect, for birds' eggs, for ticks, for plant specimens. I really got fascinated with that southern Sonoran and Chihuahuan country.  Gentry tackled it... producing the book "Rio Mayo Plants." "After that book came out, I became somewhat known as a botanist, which I wasn't. I was a zoologist doing exceptionally well writing as a botanist." Gentry completed a doctorate in botany at the University of Michigan, where the well-known botanist Harvey Harris Bartlet taught.  In 1950, Gentry became an agricultural explorer for the USDA. Based in Maryland, he traveled the world locating, researching and collecting plants for the government. [Gentry was involved in a] spurt of postwar agave work when it was discovered that plants in the agave family and plants in the wild yam family contained compounds that seemed effective in treating arthritis. Because of his far-flung collecting (he traveled in 24 foreign countries), Gentry was constantly introducing new plants to the United States and writing about their possible uses. It was high-profile work in the botanical community. "I refused several times to become a desk man for USDA," Gentry said. "It was a chance to cut out all the travel, but I told them, 'No, not me. I want to work with plants, not people. People are problems."       Unearthed Words "When the bold branches Bid farewell to rainbow leaves - Welcome wool sweaters." - B. Cybrill     "The wild November come at last Beneath a veil of rain; The night wind blows its folds aside - Her face is full of pain. The latest of her race, she takes The Autumn's vacant throne: She has but one short moon to live, And she must live alone. A barren realm of withered fields, Bleak woods, and falling leaves, The palest morns that ever dawned; The dreariest of eves. It is no wonder that she comes, Poor month! With tears of pain; For what can one so hopeless do But weep, and weep again? - Richard Henry Stoddard, poet, November     Today's book recommendation: Square Foot Gardening Third Edition by Mel Bartholomew In All-New Square Food Gardening, 3rd Edition, the best-selling gardening book in North America is re-launched and updated for the next generation of gardeners and beyond. Since Square Foot Gardening was first introduced in 1981, the revolutionary new way to garden developed by Mel Bartholomew has helped millions of home gardeners grow more fresh produce in less space and with less work. Now, based mostly on the input and experience of these millions, the system has been even further refined and improved to fully meet today's changing resources, needs, and challenges. With over 150 new photos and illustrations, this new edition makes it easier than ever to achieve nearly-foolproof results in virtually any situation: 100% of the produce; 20% of the water; 5% of the work. Perfect for experienced Square-Foot-Gardeners or beginners, the original method created by Mel has not changed in any significant way with this new 3rd edition of All New Square Foot Gardening. It remains: build a box; fill it with Mel's Mix; add a grid. But along with the classic steps, you will find some exciting and compelling new information, such as: Adding trellises and archways Substituting with new materials Adding automatic watering systems "Thinking Outside the Box" with creative configurations and shapes Square Foot Gardening in dense urban areas with little or no yard Square Foot Gardening with kids   Today's Garden Chore Set up a Houseplant Spa Day on your calendar every two weeks. During the winter, you can reduce the time between waterings as the days get shorter. A few weeks ago, I mentioned using a bar cart for staging your houseplants, and that sure comes in handy when it's time to wheel them all to the kitchen sink. Even a large tray can be of service if you prefer to shlep your plants over to the sink for a spray down instead of merely watering them with a watering can. Double potting, placing a smaller pot inside a larger pot, and insulating the plant with a double blanket of soil can help provide extra support to your plants in between waterings. Additionally, there is not much need to fertilize indoor houseplants until spring. So put the fertilizer down and concentrate on regular maintenance at the kitchen sink.     Something Sweet  Reviving the little botanic spark in your heart It was on this day in 2010 that Jane Powers wrote an excellent article for the Irish Times. What I especially loved about this article was Jane's correlation between the number of bedding plants a person ordered during the middle of the 19th century and their corresponding personal wealth. Here's what she wrote: In the heyday of bedding, the amount of plants that a person displayed was a gauge of their wealth and status. According to the head gardener at the Rothschild estate at Halton in Buckinghamshire, it was 10,000 plants for a squire, 20,000 for a baronet, 30,000 for an earl, and 40,000 for a duke.     Thanks for listening to the daily gardener, and remember: "For a happy, healthy life, garden every day."

Colin Walker has been growing succulents for 50 years, and he just happens to be the president of the British Cactus and Succulent Society. I interviewed him this week to find out about his two specialisms, Aloes and Agaves, and also found out about his penchant for putting succulents in odd containers such as teapots - and why cat litter can help with your succulent propagation (as long as you get the right type).
