Send us a textIn this special seasonal edition of the Loving Your Garden podcast, John Stirland and I sit down to reflect on the gardening year just gone – and look ahead to what comes next.As is customary at Christmas, we're joined by the renowned garden designer David Stevens (22 Chelsea medals, including 11 Golds) for a relaxed, thoughtful conversation about how gardens evolve over time – through trial and error, changing seasons, and growing confidence.From drought and erratic weather to winter interest, shrubs as the backbone of a garden, moving plants (yes, even at the “wrong” time), and choosing trees for small spaces, this is a conversation grounded in experience rather than theory. There's plenty here for newer gardeners, and just as much for those who've been digging for decades.If you've ever planted everything you like and only later realised it doesn't quite work… you're among friends.Link to the Video with illustrated plants and garden design here:https://youtu.be/ru_LEJgaRhY☘️ Topics include:– How gardens evolve year by year– Why shrubs matter more than fashion– Choosing plants for winter interest– Moving plants with confidence– Trees and structure in small gardens– Planning a garden around how you use itWhether you're listening with a cup of tea over Christmas or planning for spring, we hope this episode keeps you inspired.

In this episode of Gardeners' Corner, David Maxwell visits what some call 'Ireland's secret garden' - Kilmacurragh in County Wicklow. The site became part of the National Botanic Gardens in 1996 and since then a restoration programme has been underway. Leading the tour of the gardens, which boast a vast plant collection, is head gardener Seamus O'Brien. From a 'Peter Pan' tree which thinks it's a child but is over 100 years old to a plant which traps animals so their decaying bodies give it food. Seamus is also continuing the work of the Victorian plant hunters. He has gathered plants from Chile, China and Tasmania on his own plant hunting expeditions. Also joining the tour of the gardens is Neil Porteous from Mount Stewart. The two gardens cooperate in the work of creating a 'Noah's Ark' of endangered southern hemisphere plants in the temperate Irish climate.

In this episode of the podcast, Kyle is joined by Dr. Mike Debord to delve into the advanced technology of blood flow restriction (BFR) and its extensive benefits. They discuss the science behind BFR, its applications in different age groups, and its potential to revolutionize athletic performance and recovery. Dr. Debord elaborates on how BFR can be especially advantageous for adolescents looking to gain a competitive edge and for elderly and injured individuals who can't handle heavy lifting. They also touch on the historical development of the technology and highlight studies validating its efficacy. Additionally, they cover practical aspects like safe usage, the importance of achieving lactate burn, and how BFR can enhance both performance and recovery by optimizing anabolic signals without excessively stressing the body. The conversation is rounded out with personal anecdotes and practical tips for integrating BFR into various training regimens.   FULL TEMPLE RESET registration is now open.

In this podcast episode, Kyle welcomes David Nurse, a renowned mental coach who has worked with elite athletes, particularly in the NBA. David talks about his experiences and the track record that sets him apart in the realm of life and mental coaching. The conversation transitions to various topics, including the importance of managing negative self-talk, and how it impacts both athletic performance and daily life. David shares insights into finding simplicity on the far side of complexity, explaining that top performers often achieve mastery by returning to basics and practicing with intention. The two discuss the concept of flow state and its critical role in peak performance. David dives into a scientific study he conducted to train individuals to enter flow state through a series of techniques including meta-visualization, autogenic mind-muscle connection, bilateral tapping, cross crawl disorganization, and neuro-connecting. The discussion also covers the significance of having a healthy relationship with failure and the importance of pursuing passions with purpose. The episode concludes with the promise of David's upcoming book, which will offer more insights into achieving flow state and peak performance.   Connect with David here: Instagram Website All Links The David Nurse Podcast More Less Protein   From Kyle: The Community is coming!

Yes, I realise it won't be summer for another week or so, but the following observations are just a few Gardeners' Tips to muck around with: Ancistrocerus gazella is an introduced “potters wasp” from Europe. It got here decades ago and is a really cute predatory wasp that does some great things in your quarter acre paradise. This little wasplet makes nice nests inside hollow tubes and then it goes on the hunt for small caterpillars, usually the leafrollers that silk your leaves together and chew from within their leaf-silk tent. Ancistrocerus paralyses the caterpillars, lays an egg on them and cements the quarry and its own potential baby inside the carefully chosen tube. Of course, the caterpillar will become food for the ectoparasite, and this helps to reduce the chewing damage on your roses, perennials and other plants. Here's a tip: create a bunch of small-diameter bamboo tubes as a choice of real estate for these wasps to live in. The accommodation runs a little bit like that of the mason wasp (who gets their kids —larvae— to feed on paralysed spiders). Frustrated Cucurbit growers (cucumbers, melons, marrow, courgettes, you name it) often complain at this time of the year that their plants simply don't set fruit at all; in fact, the plant almost exclusively produces male flowers and hardly any female flowers! Yep, common complaint. If there is a scarcity of pollinators the plant “thinks” there isn't enough pollen/there are not enough pollinators to fertilise the female flowers, so it creates more male flowers to “compensate”. A remedy that works toward solving the problem is to have a lot of Pollen and Nectar plants surrounding the cucumber/melon, etc, so that a heap of pollinating insects are constantly patrolling the area. The first female flower will then almost certainly get her turn, and the plant “knows” it's okay to produce more female flowers. If you can achieve that from mid-spring onwards, all will be well! Talking about pollinators, have a look out for the Wool Carder Bee! It's another introduced pollinating insect from Europe, and it has some quite amazing behaviours. It loves to hover and fly around the Lamiate flowers in your garden, stuff like Salvias, and lamb's ear. These types of plants are its favourite food, and it defends its patch fiercely by chasing away other pollinators – bees, bumble bees, and even wasps! It does so by dive-bombing these “interlopers” with almost Top Gun-like sorties. They will even squeeze bees and bumble bees between their abdominal segments, festooned with spikes! Gruesome stuff, especially when then mortally wound these bees. When wool carder bees start nest building, they scrape off the fine, light-coloured hairs off the leaves of certain plants (remember lamb's ear!) and work these fibres into the most delicate, soft and insulating ball that acts as nest nurseries for their larvae and pupae in development. Their name (wool carder bee) tells the story of their ability to cut off the hairs and fibres and use those resources to create brilliantly designed nests for their babies. When you point all this activity out to the kids, you'll find they will be busy observing aerial battles and dogfights, right in your back yard! I think it's worth-while to plant some lamb's ear, just for the entertainment value alone. LISTEN ABOVE See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

This week, Joanne welcomes horticulturist Stephen Biggs back to the podcast to talk about his latest project, the newly expanded Canada Gardener's Journal. About Steven   Steven was recognized by Garden Making magazine as one of the "green gang" making a difference in Canadian horticulture. His home-garden experiments span driveway straw-bale gardens, a rooftop kitchen garden, fruit plantings, and an edible-themed front yard. He's a horticulturist, award-winning broadcaster and author, and former horticulture instructor with George Brown and Durham Colleges in Ontario, Canada. His other books include Grow Olives Where You Think You Can't, Grow Lemons Where You Think You Can't, Growing Figs in Cold Climates, Grow Figs Where You Think You Can't, and No-Guff Gardening, available at foodgardenlife.com. Tune in to learn more about Canada Gardener's Journal. Origins of the Gardener's Journal Started 34 years ago by Margaret Bennett Alder Inspired by her father's paper booklets he used to manage tasks and meds Margaret used the format to track garden tasks, neat plant sources, and observations First year: ~50 copies printed; grew to 500 the next year By the 25th edition (2017), and her retirement at age 90, over 18,000 copies sold Margaret passed away at 98; the journal is part of her gardening legacy Evolution of the Journal Originally the Toronto Gardener's Journal, then the Toronto & Golden Horseshoe Gardener's Journal Taken over by Helen and Sarah Battersby (TorontoGardens.com), who expanded its geographic scope and won awards Now passed to Stephen, who has turned it into Canada's Gardener's Journal What's New in Canada's Gardener's Journal Now Canada-wide and bilingual, with information relevant across the country Includes average first and last frost dates using the most recent Environment Canada data Expanded sources list featuring Canadian suppliers that ship across the country (seeds, nursery stock, etc.) Ongoing plan to update sources as new nurseries and seed companies are suggested From Toronto-specific to Seasonal Tasks Old version: weekly tasks tied to the Toronto area and similar zones New version: season-based task lists (spring, summer, fall, winter) Includes outdoor tasks and indoor prep (seed starting, planning, etc.) Better suited to different climates and zones across Canada (and similar U.S. regions) Perpetual Calendar Format Previously: a dated, year-specific planner (e.g., 2024, 2025) with fixed calendar weeks Now: a perpetual, undated week-by-week layout Gardeners can start using it at any point in the year Can stretch use over more than one year if desired Focuses on periods of active gardening rather than wasting pages in off-months Practical, Hands-On Focus Designed by a gardener for gardeners—light on theory, heavy on practical prompts Space for gardeners to record: What they planted and when Weather patterns and unusual seasons Successes, failures, and plant sources Acts as both a planner and a historical record for future decision-making Why Garden Journaling Matters  Memory is unreliable: gardeners quickly forget how wet/cool or hot/dry a season actually was Notes and photos together help explain: Why certain plants thrived or struggled How changing climate and shifting zones affect timing and plant choices Useful for: Answering client questions (for designers like Joanne) Tracking long-term trends in weather and performance Diagnosing issues (e.g., why tomatoes didn't ripen as usual) Climate Change & Updated Data Growing zones and frost patterns are shifting with climate change The journal uses the latest Environment Canada frost-date data Stephen expects ongoing updates in future editions as data and climate continue to change Honouring Founder Margaret Bennett Alder Margaret was passionate about a plant-based diet, which she linked to her longevity The journal has long included pages of her favourite plant-based resources Stephen has expanded this section with new Canadian sources in her honour Availability & Price Price: $19.95 – positioned as an affordable gift or stocking stuffer Available via foodgardenlife.com under the books section Some specialty garden retailers carry it; retailers are listed on the website Stephen encourages buyers (especially Christmas shoppers) to email him via the site if they're unsure about shipping timelines Although now truly Canada-wide, gardeners in northern U.S. border states with similar zones may also find it very useful Check out Stephen's books and Canada's Gardener's Journal on foodgardenlife.com.

The podcast features a return visit from Erick Godsey, who has worked alongside Kyle for over six years in Fit For Service (FFS) and previously at Onnit, where their desks were next to each other. They share a deep bond over discussions on Jungian psychology, tarot readings, and personal growth. The conversation primarily centers around their recent shared experience participating in a vision quest guided by Ken Conte, recounting their transformative journeys and the lessons learned. Kyle and Erick discuss the physical and psychological challenges they faced, the spiritual teachings they encountered, and the profound impacts on their personal lives and relationships. They also touch upon the end of their time with FFS, the grief and growth that came with it, and their plans for future ventures like Full Temple Reset and the Kyle's new digital community. Throughout, the importance of facing adversity, alchemical transformation, and continuous self-improvement is emphasized.   FULL TEMPLE RESET registration is now open.

In this episode of Hort Culture, we provide fun and practical advice on gifts for gardeners! We kick things off by chatting about the start of meteorological winter, the first snow, and our own fun holiday traditions—think pocket-sized cheese advent calendars and big batches of homemade pasta sauce. Then, we dive right into the main event: finding the perfect gifts for the plant people in your life. We share a genius watering hack for indoor plants: forget the tiny watering can! For folks with lots of houseplants, we highly recommend a portable, rechargeable camping shower pump used with a 5-gallon bucket on a rolling cart. Beyond that, we suggest essential gear like a nice pair of high-quality pruners and a nifty little earth auger that attaches to a hand drill, which makes planting bulbs and plugs super fast. And don't forget maintenance—a small, handheld sharpener for pruners is a cheap but incredibly useful gift! If you want something more thoughtful and lasting, we suggest living plants like an Amaryllis or Christmas Cactus, or even saved seeds or perennial plants, which are beautiful, enduring symbols of care.Questions/Comments/Feedback/Suggestions for Topics: hortculturepodcast@gmail.comCheck us out on Instagram!

Cold weather set the stage and bare root season is off to a flying start. We bring Mattie from Future Forests back on the mic to share straight-talking, field-tested advice on hedging, trees, and the edible surge that's reshaping Irish gardens. If you've ever wondered which whip size actually makes sense, when staking is non‑negotiable, or why those tall instant hedges sometimes flop, this conversation is your blueprint for smarter planting.We dig into the fruit boom: the apple that almost never fails (Katie), the plum pair that keeps winning (Victoria and Jubilee), and the pear trio that finally fixes pollination headaches (Conference, Beth, Concord). Soft fruit gets its due too—raspberries, currants, blueberries—and a timely case for damsons as the resilient, flavour‑rich choice for trickier sites. Quince demand is spiking, heritage apples are pulling people online, and more buyers want honest descriptions that flag disease risks before they commit.Hedges are being rethought with a more resilient lens. Hawthorn leads for biodiversity and farm edges, beech and hornbeam anchor structure, and evergreen picks get a reality check. Portuguese laurel still impresses but shows mildew pressure in pockets; yew is underused and superb on good ground; Japanese privet is clean and dense; and griselinia holds up when pruned early enough to dodge frost damage. Along the coast, fuchsia hedges remain iconic and vigorous. We also trade notes on unusual trees—Caucasian wingnut, Zelkova, standout hawthorns—and why some beloved cultivars like Paul's Scarlet no longer earn their keep.Practical wins frame the whole chat: never plant a dry root, dip as you go, protect with stakes where needed, use mycorrhizal fungi to speed establishment, mulch to lock in moisture, and be ready for that now‑predictable April or May dry spell. We round out with perennials and ferns for texture and shade, plus a thoughtful look at native provenance and sourcing balance across Irish and trusted European growers.If you found this useful, follow the show, share it with a gardener who needs a nudge, and leave a review to help others find us.

Tired of guesswork and gimmicks? We unpack Christmas gifts that gardeners actually want and use, blending practical tools, cosy comforts, and learning experiences that make a real difference outdoors. Stephen and Eibhlin, long-time listeners at different stages in their gardening journeys, join us to bring fresh ideas that fit small patios, big plots, tight budgets, and thoughtful splurges.We start with essentials that earn their keep: quality secateurs paired with a holster, gloves that balance dexterity and protection, and the underrated power of a well-chosen voucher to time seeds and bulbs perfectly. From there, we build themed hampers that create a full creative arc—like a dried-flower kit with inspiring book picks, seed packs, a small raised bed, and a brass-framed display to show off the results. Comfort gets its moment too: hammocks for a shaded corner, potting benches that save your back, kneelers that make weeding tolerable, and indoor Click & Grow units that keep herbs going when daylight fades. We even get into handsome Hawes watering cans that deliver precision without spoiling your kitchen shelf.If your garden's a bit further along, we go deeper with problem-solvers and statement pieces: waders for pond edits, a mattock that outmuscles most root jobs, salvage-yard gems like character pots and sturdy boot cleaners, and fire pits that stretch summer evenings. We round things out with gifts that grow skills and confidence—courses on veg and propagation, local garden consultations that prevent expensive mistakes, and standout books from Irish experts like TJ Maher, Jimmy Blake, and Klaus Laitenberger. For the dreamers, we plant the seed for garden pilgrimages to Kew or Keukenhof's tulip spectacle.Share this with the person who buys your presents, build your wishlist, and let's make sure the next gift you unwrap actually gets used.

Front gardens are often different from back gardens and tend to be a little bit smaller. They have to be functional and are usually quite visible too. They offer the added advantage of environmental benefits, such as improved air quality, and can also provide habitats for wildlife. So, how do you make your front garden appealing while also making it work for you too? Arit Anderson has some recommendations. Recorded at the Gardeners' World Autumn Fair.

This week we finish up Artober on CP, in conversation with artist, Mary Jackson, a renowned sweetgrass basket weaver known for combining traditional methods with contemporary designs.  Based in the Low Country of South Carolina, Mary is the descendant of generations of Gullah basket weavers. Born in 1945, in 2008, Mary was awarded a MacArthur Foundation fellowship (“Genius Grant”) for "pushing the centuries-old tradition in stunning new directions”.  From the 1970s through to the early 2000s, Mary became something of an accidental Gardener, environmental restorationist, and economic driver, when she recognized the dwindling supply and access to the signature native sweetgrass that her cultural art and tradition relied on. This diminishing resource was due in part to booming development along the U.S. Southeast coasts, the fragmentation and destruction of delicate coastal ecosystems, and the increasing exclusion of Gullah basketmakers from traditional harvest sites. Mary took it on herself to organize the basketmaking community, and working in collaboration with this community and Robert DuFault, of the Clemson University Department of Biological Sciences, her initiative led work to secure sustainable availability and access to native sweetgrass (Muhlenbergia sp.) for the traditional basket makers, and future of this traditional art, craft, and cultural symbol. Gullah Sweetgrass baskets are an over 400-year tradition in the U.S. Southeast, first as a highly prized skill and centuries, if not millennia-old, passed-down knowledge of enslaved West Africans being brought to the colonies. These skills and knowledge directly contributed to the success specifically of rice farming in the region, where highly developed and precisely crafted utilitarian baskets were used for everything from carrying, harvesting, winnowing, to fine household tasks.  Gullah Sweetgrass Baskets are a continued symbol of the City of Charleston, South Carolina, and for over a century, these skilled artists and their basketry have been an economic and cultural mainstay in the region. All depending on healthy and abundant native sweetgrass, palmetto, and loblolly or longleaf pine ecosystems and supply. The “access” Mary catalyzed in response to this contraction of the health and supply of sweetgrass ultimately included: research into successful germination of sweetgrass at scale and teaching basket makers how to grow sweetgrass at home; the enventual introduction of Muhlenbergia species to the plant and garden trade, making it now a staple of the ornamental grass and native plant movements; large-scale plantings of the grasses on private and public grounds with permission for basketmakers to harvest and tend; and, finally, Army Corps of Engineers and coastal developments working to replant and restorate inter-tidal beach dunes with the stabilizing native sweetgrass.  All of this from one woman's impulse to cultivate plants with an eye to protecting the legacy of her people, and the future of their craft. Now an elder, Mary agreed to be one of the interview subjects of our 10 Cultivating Place Live events in 2024 and 2025. For the CP LIVE events, which will be included in the final Cultivating Place: The Power of Gardeners documentary film series, Jennifer interviewed Mary Jackson, Robert Dufault, and next-generation artist and Sweetgrass basket leader, Corey Alston in front of a public audience in Theodora Park, Charleston, SC. This week's podcast conversation was an interview with just Mary and Jennifer filmed and recorded live by EM EN in Mary's Studio, on John's Island, outside of Charleston. Enjoy!

On this episode, we're taking a look at how farmers and gardeners are helping maintain the region's biodiversity. Our first stop? A seed swap.With the summer gardening season at its end, many growers throughout Appalachia are turning their attention to seed saving. It's a practice where gardeners select the seeds from their best crops, and then save them over winter to plant the following spring. This past April, we visited the annual Appalachian Seed Swap in Pikeville, Kentucky.  We learned how important seed saving and swapping are for maintaining Appalachia's biodiversity. And for creating a tasty meal.Next, we travel to Richmond, Kentucky where Brian Chadwell is growing something unexpected. He's a fourth generation farmer and he's using his family's land to grow rice.

In this autumn special, Gardeners' Corner celebrates our relationship with trees. David Maxwell returns to his childhood home to revisit the trees he grew up with. Tree expert Tony Kirkham introduces some of the trees grown in London's Chelsea Physic garden which may prove more resilient than our natives as the climate changes. The myths and legends linked to trees are something that fascinates storyteller Vicky McFarland – she reveals tales of love and death. In Rostrevor, County Down, former carpenter Paul Clerkin knows the trees of Kilbroney Park better than most. Now a public park, it was once a grand estate where exotic trees were planted as status symbols. Amidst the beauty of the season, the programme also explores how trees continue to help us by cooling our cities, preventing floods and removing pollution.

Welcome to our next airing of a CP LIVE* conversation, this time in celebration of Artober in conversation with Sofia Laçin and Hennessy Christophel, of LA-based Studio Tutto. On highway underpasses, school walls, public park welcome centers, and city water towers, the epic hand-crafted murals of Studio Tutto tell visual stories of invisible nature to help people connect and become familiar with what is surrounding us, but we often do not notice. Their “thoughtful site-specific pieces invite and incite softness and meaningful connection between people and place, and in so doing, they are “optimistically shaping the way we see ourselves and the world around us.” The interview and gathering for it took place around this same time last year, when Studio Tutto's Mural “Invisible Neighbors” was completed and unveiled for the first time as a centerpiece for the Welcome Center at LA's storied Griffith Park, one of the largest municipal parks embracing urban wilderness in the United States. With over 4200 acres of both natural chaparral and landscaped parkland, it is a complex and interesting refuge for humans, wildlife, and plant communities. Situated in the arid eastern Santa Monica Mountain Range, the park features varied topography and diverse plant communities, including coastal sage scrub, oak, and native walnut woodlands, as well as riparian creek vegetation and deep canyons. It is an ongoing experiment in how humans and wildlands intersect, interface, and, in the best-case scenarios, strive for a compassionate coexistence. One celebrated example of this struggle is the life of a mountain lion who spent his adult life in the park, became beloved by the world, and ultimately died there. When Studio Tutto was commissioned to create one of their powerful murals for the reopening of Griffith Park's historic welcome center, after much research and thought, their mural became “An artistic [visual] altar to the spirit of P-22 [and his last wild place].” The mandate for me in these CP LIVE experiences and interviews is to not only give voice to (as the podcast always does), but actually make visible the many diverse connections animated by the gardening impulse everywhere. What this conversation makes visible to me, and I hope to all listeners, is that gardening is a multifaceted act – it is physical, it is intellectual, it is artistic and imaginative, it is tangible, and symbolic. It is one lens and method by which we know nature, and by which we participate in the nature of the world, and the nature of ourselves. Through their larger-than-life art (or maybe it's art trying to meet a truer scale of life's enormity?), and the nature it brings into our view, Studio Tutto is growing, painting, and weaving the beauty of the sacred presence of nature back into everyday human places, and they are weaving humans back into nature's places, like Griffith Park. Are artists gardening our world? These artists are. The more we see and support the incredible diversity of who Gardeners are, what they grow, and what Gardens mean, the better we grow our world. ENJOY this artful conversation with Hennessy and Sofia! *CP LIVE is a series of 10 CP conversations recorded and filmed live on the home ground of, and in support of, the cultivators of place with whom we are in conversation.

In this podcast episode, Kyle welcomes Alexander Sachon, a researcher and author focused on the advancement of civilization through philosophy. They discuss various critical themes, including the imminent emergence of a one-world government, which Sachon explores in his book 'The Coming World Nation: Why Global Governments is Inevitable.' Sachon delves into the idea of the American Empire, its oligarchical underpinnings, and the role of deep state institutions in shaping its global dominance. They touch upon the controversial history of suppressed technologies such as etheric energy and anti-gravity, which Sachon suggests are part of a secretive technocratic superstate. The conversation also covers the potential for these hidden technologies to revolutionize society, provided they are managed responsibly. They examine historical cycles, the implications of cosmic cycles on collective human evolution, and the philosophical frameworks needed to guide humanity through these transformative times. The podcast emphasizes the necessity of a philosophical renaissance to steer societal values and governance structures in a positive direction.   Connect with Alex here: Instagram The Coming World Nation Book Substack Website   From Kyle: The Community is coming!
