Podcasts about Flower power

Welcome to another Retrospective series consisting of previously aired short segments on similar topics packaged together for easier listening. This retrospective is called Flower Power which is all about how to select, grow and care for a wide range of flowers. Master Gardener Volunteer, Linda Levitt provides lots of practical tips on how to best select, plant, and care for a wide range of flowers. The first segment focuses on the difference between Annuals, Perennials, and Biennials. Annual plants complete their life cycle, from germination to seed production, in a single growing season and then they die. They tend to have numerous and continuous blooms from spring or early summer until frost and devote more energy to see production than roots when compared to perennials. Some well known annuals include: pansies, marigolds, lantana, super bells, garden mums, Zinnias, alyssum, and nasturtium. Annuals are a great way to experiment. maintain constant color, and refresh your garden year after year. By contrast, perennial plants regrow every spring, but have a shorter blooming period. By contrast, perennial plants will continue to grow each year. Only the top portion of the plant dies annually in the fall, maintaining their growing root system allowing reblooming in the spring. These plants tend not to bloom the first year of their life. Typically a perennial plant has a root system that spreads outwards and deep and will benefit from being divided after a couple of years. Perennials should last at least three years. They have a shorter bloom time than annuals so think about pairing different perennials that bloom at different times during the growing season. And pairing with some annuals for constant color. Perennials can be planted from bulb, seed or plant. Some commonly known perennials are coral bells, purple, coneflower, daffodils, bleeding, heart and daylilies. A biennial plant completes its growth cycle in two seasons but does not bloom until the second year. It drops its seeds after blooming and in two years, you should have new blooms. Some well known examples of biennial plants are poppies, sweet William and foxglove. In the next segment, Linda talks about the beautiful and versatile Lantana plant. This is an easy care, versatile, and colorful plant that is known for its long bloom season, from late spring to first frost. There are about 150 species within the Verbena family. The plant is considered an annual plant in colder climates and a perennial plant in more tropical environments. Lantana can propagate from seed or stem cuttings and should be planted at least two weeks after the danger of frost. It thrives in hot dry spots, and in all soil types that are well drained, as long as it has enough water to get established. Lantana blooms best in full sun. As an annual it can grow three to four feet tall and one to three feet wide in just one season. Some species can grow upright and tall providing great color in your garden or then can trail, spilling over in a hanging basket or container. The tiny flowers appear in clusters called umbels that are one to two inches across in colors that range from vivid reds and oranges to muted shades of coral, pink and peach and they don't have to be deadheaded. This plant is continuously blooming with foliage that is dark green or variegated, rough, textured and oval in shape. The plants attract pollinators, butterflies, bees and hummingbirds. Some plants to consider using as companion plants include Angelonia, Pentas, sun-loving Coleus, Superbells, Petunias and Salvia. They all have similar growing conditions and will do so well with Lantana. In summary, theyare beautiful, colorful, ever-blooming plants that require little or no maintenance when planted in the right conditions. This episode concludes with another short segment covering the hellebore, which is called the 'harbinger of spring'. It provides nectar for emerging pollinators when there are so few nectar sources available. Some of the plants are well-known by the names Winter Rose, Christmas Rose or Lenten Rose, but they have no relation to the rose family. These plants are surprisingly frost resistant and some are even evergreen, keeping their color during the winter. Many species are toxic to animals and tend to be deer resistant. They thrive in partial shade, especially at the woodland edge. They will grow in dense shade but may not produce many flowers. However, they have been known to adapt to more light if necessary. Limda recommends that you plant hellebores in moist well-draining soil that has been supplemented with compost. They prefer soil rich in organic material and they will thrive if you plant them under trees, but note that Hellebores do not like hot summer sun. Plant in the spring or early fall as long as the ground is frost free. Once established, the plant will grow about 18 inches high with flowers that consist of five large petals, which are actually sepals, that form to protect the reproductive parts of the plant. For most species, the flowers are drooping and falling downward, so a woodland slope would be an ideal location. Some varieties however, have been bred with upright flowers and are used in spring bouquets. After a few years, a mature plant in the right conditions can produce 50 or more flowers. You should mulch every year in the fall and do allow fallen leaves to act as natural mulch and soil conditioner. Hellebores are hardy, long-loved perennials that if grown in ideal conditions will naturalize and spread. They are tough, cold hardy, deer or rabbit resistant and easy to grow, providing the possibility of evergreen foliage for year round interest.

De la Révolution des Œillets à la Révolution du Jasmin, en passant par la rose du Parti socialiste, de tous temps, les fleurs ont symbolisé et accompagné les mouvements politiques. La photo a fait le tour du monde. La Fille à la fleur, une photo de Marc Riboud lors d'une manifestation aux États-Unis contre la guerre du Vietnam, en 1967. Une lycéenne oppose aux baïonnettes des soldats une fleur de chrysanthème. C'est le Flower Power, le pouvoir des fleurs, le slogan du mouvement hippie des années 1960 et 1970.Au Portugal, en avril 1974, c'est la saison des œillets. Et une fleuriste en offre à des militaires, en chemin pour renverser la dictature, la fleur au fusil. C'est la Révolution des Œillets. Trente-six ans puis tard, c'est la Révolution du Jasmin, au pays du jasmin, la Tunisie. Ben Ali s'enfuit. Son parfum entêtant (le parfum du jasmin, pas celui de Ben Ali) gagne les pays de la région pour donner les printemps arabes – la plupart des fleurs fleurissent au printemps.Fleurs des champs de batailleL'emblème des Nations unies, ce n'est pas un, mais deux rameaux d'olivier, le symbole de la paix. Mais depuis 1945, l'olivier a perdu beaucoup de feuilles… Avant cela, au lendemain de la Première Guerre mondiale, le coquelicot et le bleuet, qui poussent sur des sols ingrats, sont les premiers à fleurir sur les champs de bataille, champs de ruine de l'humanité. Pour se souvenir de la barbarie, les Anglais choisissent les premiers le coquelicot, rouge sang, Les Français, le bleuet, bleu comme l'uniforme des soldats morts pour la France. Les rois de France, eux, avaient comme emblème une fleur de lys. C'était en réalité un iris, depuis que Clovis fut sauvé par une biche dans un champ d'iris.Roses et épinesEt puis il y a la rose, qui a donné son nom à une guerre, la Guerre des Deux Roses. Une guerre civile, en Angleterre, au XVe siècle, entre deux maisons royales, l'une représentée par une rose blanche et l'autre par une rose rouge. Un mariage met fin à la guerre. Et l'Angleterre se choisit comme emblème une rose rouge au cœur blanc.La rose au poing, c'est l'emblème du Parti socialiste, en France, choisi par François Mitterrand en 1971, dix ans avant son élection. « Moi, j'aime les fleurs, déclare le futur président, lors d'un débat télévisé en 1972. Je ne suis pas un très grand jardinier, et les roses, c'est calé ! C'est particulièrement difficile à entretenir ! Alors une rose, pour le Parti socialiste, c'est un symbole : c'est pas facile, on s'y écorche un peu les doigts... Mais c'est beau ! » Le symbole est beau.

Colombia has emerged as the world's second-biggest exporter of cut flowers, and the largest supplier to the United States. Local growers suffered a scare this year when US president Donald Trump threatened to impose tariffs of 50% on imports from Colombia. The dispute was quickly resolved but, even so, the threat of tariffs remains. And the sector faces other challenges, particularly around sustainability. We visit a flower farm in Colombia and go to Bogota airport to see how the country exports this most delicate and perishable of goods. We also talk to an academic who says the industry is changing rapidly, with an emphasis on growing flowers locally rather than flying them around the world.

With Mother's Day tomorrow, flower sellers are out in full swing. Are people worried they'll get the bouquet wrong? Siofra Mulqueen has been tackling this thorny subject.

We are out somewhere on the Atlantic ocean folks.  Probably in our first port, Jamaica, on the Flower Power cruise. We hope you enjoy our "cruise" episode we recorded before we left port.  See you next week back on dry land!

SHOW NOTES: In this show, we've got tips for planting bulbs for a beautiful garden, breaking free of stuck windows to let the fresh air in, and protecting trees and shrubs with proper mulching. Spring forward and get home improvement advice to last all year as we answer your timely questions! Spring Bulbs: Think flower power and plan ahead for spring by planting bulbs now. Stuck Windows: Break free of stuck windows with these easy tips. Mulch: Learn the right way to use mulch for insulating trees and shrubs.   Q & A: Sliding Doors: Nancy's sliding doors are hard to open. It's possible to replace the rollers, but we recommend replacing them with new, more efficient doors instead. Crawlspace: The dehumidifier runs constantly in Peter's crawlspace. He should check his gutters, downspouts, and grading to keep water away from the foundation. Roofing: Should Ella add a third layer of roofing? It's a bad idea because it can shorten the life of the new roof, but we have some suggestions. Structural: Vincent is worried about cracks inside his home and exterior bricks that seem to be pulling away. A certified home inspector or structural engineer can specify the proper repairs. Fireplace: Whistling and howling noises are coming from Sharon's gas fireplace. It sounds like an issue with the roof venting that she should discuss with the manufacturer.   ASK A QUESTION: Need help with your own home improvement or décor question? We'd love to help!

Серія Street Culture мікстейпів продовжує поповнюватись якісними роботами від українських діджеїв. Цього разу презентуємо мікстейп DJ Can-On, представника команди Flower Power з міста Кривий Ріг. Кенон почав захоплюватись діджеїнгом ще у 2012 році, тоді він почав свої перші кроки завдяки контролеру Numark IDJ Live та iPod Touch, але вже з практикою та через сильну любов до музики та діджеїнгу придбав свій перший сетап. З того часу Кенон колікціонує вініл, грає здебільшого на брейкінг івентах, оскільки сам є бібоєм та завжди тримає конект з танцполом, бо розуміється на брейкінгу і знає як прокачати якісно івент. Багаж музики складається з хіп-хопу, тріп хопу, фанку та брейксів. Кенон грав на більшості масштабних брейкінг івентах, а саме: Банка Фанка, Breakidz, Explosion, Joint & Jam, RedBull Ukraine Cypher та інших. Цей мікстейп наповнений брейксами, власними мешапами Кенона на потужною енергією, котра заряджає на тренування. Творимо серію Street Culture Мікстейпів разом з Algorytm NGO, Street Culture, uabreaking та Radio SKOVORODA.

Lennon and McCartney eloquently recited an affirmation stating that In My Life I Loved Them All.The affection for certain artists and the melodic poetry they injected into our souls has remained in our wiring through the good, the bad and the uncertain times of our lives.One beloved gentleman we cherish was known as Arthur Alexander. Known as June to his closest companions, he was a one of a kind country-soul songwriter and singer. It can easily be said that he invented the genre.The fifth American studio album by  the Rolling Stones, released in December 1965, contained the Alexander classic "You Better Move On". From that moment on I was hooked on his intimate honesty and at times, the violent dillemas created within the stories he told.From "Anna" to "Rainbow Road" he took us into a world of hurt, light and truth."Anna" was first made familiar to us all through the Beatles cover version of this classic.On June 17, 1963, they performed the tune for the BBC radio show Pop Go the Beatles and was included on their Vee Jay LP Introducing The Beatles.In 1994, "Adios Amigo: A Tribute to Arthur Alexander" was released with industry legends engaging their versions of some of his classics.Roger McQuinn, the man whose voice elevated the Byrds to historic heights recorded "Anna" for the occasion.His reading of this tear stained composition is dealt a tender touch and inspires the notion that when the very best translate the very best, we are often rewarded beyond emotion.On that same tribute recording, another  unexpected performance is revealed.Robert Plant, known for his howling , screeching and a jet plane vocal roar illustrated in the metal blues ventures of Led Zeppelin offered up a remarkable surprise. Plant's ability to take Arthur's haunting chant' "If It Really Has To Be This Way" down a road of interrpretation few of us knew he could travel,  is a revelation which should inspire every singer to better worlds.Once again, proof of emotive genius is discovered when a vocalist of Plant's caliber is sworn to the oath of conveying the inner depth of the heart as written by a master of song craft.And so we enter this new realm of Double Trouble with the talent and awe of three pioneers of popular music.We double down on the voices of Robert and Roger as the giant shadow of Arthur Alexanderconducts a human orchestra of words, urges and the need to confess that which few are capable of expressing with such passionate poise.Robert remains with us at 82 and Roger at 76.Arthur Alexander boarded The Mystery Train on June 9, 1993 at 54.Ladies and gentleman. Welcome To Double Trouble.Rich Buckland
