TALKING FLOWERS Seasonality of Flowers Vegetables have their season when they're available fresh and not just out of the cold room where they've been for 6 months or more. What about flowers? Many people forget that flowers have their seasons too, after all there are plenty of flowers available all year round. Hellebores-a winter flower Why is that important? It's the same as for vegetables and fruit, if it's not the current season for the flowers, then they're most likely imported. If I asked you what's the best time of year to buy peonies would you know? What about roses, is there a best time? Have a look at the below suggestions to realise what is actually in season. Winter Flowers Orchids, Vanda, Dendrobium, Cymbidium, Phaleanopsis, Hellebores. Jonquils, Daffodils, Tulips, Hyacinths, Daphne (pictured.) Spring Flowers Stephanotis Peonies are an October flower. Roses, Ranunculus, Australian wildflowers-Waratahs, Ericas, Geraldton Wax; Cherry Blossoms, Magnolias Summer Flowers Roses, Sunflowers, Gerberas, Carnations, Stephanotis. Autumn Flowers Dahlias, Roses are continuing. Asiatic lilies are an exception as in Australia they are grown in glass houses and are available all year round. I'm talking with Nadine Brown of https://www.theivyinstitute.com.au/ The scientific name for spring stars is Ipheion uniflorum, often marketed as Triteleia Stars Of Spring, rather confusingly. Got to say one my favourite spring flowers. If you have any feedback email realworldgardener@gmail.com or write in to 2RRR PO Box 644 Gladesville NSW 1675

Now is the time to plant tulips, daffodils, crocus, hyacinths and all types of bulbs for a spring flower display. While many gardeners like planting similar bulbs together in groups, if you only have a small yard or area for planting, there's another technique you can use. Layering is planting different bulbs together in a large hole. If done properly, you can have many types of bulbs blooming in succession in spring. The key is bulb selection. Bulb packaging in garden centers often lists the bloom times of the various bulbs. Select a number of different bulbs and mix and match early, mid and late spring flowering times so something new is blooming every week or so. Start with the large sized bulbs such as hyacinths and daffodils. Those will be planted deepest in your hole. Then look for medium-sized bulbs such as tulips and alliums. Those will be on top of the large bulbs. Finally, select small bulbs such as crocus, scilla and chionodoxa. These are planted on top. To plant, dig a good sized hole about 8 inches deep and wide enough to fit your bulbs. Plant so the bulbs are almost touching in well-drained soil. Lay the largest bulbs 6 inches deep and cover with soil. Layer the medium-sized bulbs 4 inches deep and again cover those with soil. Finally, layer the small bulbs on top of the medium bulbs only 1- to 2-inches deep. Cover it all with soil and water well. In spring, depending on your selections you'll have waves of crocus, daffodils, alliums and tulips blooming giving you weeks of bulb joy.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Imagine having a telescope that could allow you to see whether a syndrome will manifest in the future. Imagine being able to use it to cure diseases before they can even occur. For Dr. Thomas McElrath, MD-PhD in the Division of Maternal-Fetal Medicine at the Brigham & Women's Hospital, this telescope exists and is called LIFECODES. The LIFECODES Biobank is an extensive biobank of samples collected for over 14 years with data on over 6,000 pregnancies. It is used to look at biomarkers associated with pregnancy complications and the effects of environmental exposures on pregnancy outcomes. In this episode, we have interviewed Dr. McElrath to talk about his recent work published in Nature. He has leveraged these data to shed light on normal pregnancy progression to uncover new biomarkers that can be used to diagnose syndromes months before clinical presentation. “Zenyatta is my Spirit Animal and Hyacinths'' music composition administered by Rukudzo © 2022 Rukudzo Kanyemba.

I love your podcast and am in a pickle, I hope you can help. It’s my best friends Birthday, and she is turning 25 today! The past year has been terrible for her. She lost her dad to Covid and moved from coast to coast to be with her family. She (and I) have been feeling quite down and hopeless about love and feel that it is just not going to happen for us. I am trying to be as optimistic as possible but coming up short. She has taken strides towards making a better career for herself (in AAPI Mental health) going to grad school soon. Could you please recommend a book, fiction or non fiction, to lift up her spirits and help with the inevitable quarter life crisis? Something with preferably a happy/hopeful ending and not a lot of trauma. Look forward to your recommendation, Love, A lost Friend 2. I have a friend who I know likes reading and has a birthday coming up in April and I would love to get her a book she will enjoy. She likes social justice issues, and recently enjoyed reading the Hate U Give. I would like another book similar that explores issues in an interesting way, we are in our early twenties so does not have to be YA. She does also enjoy fantasy so it also could be set in a different world. LGBTQI+ themes are very welcome. Thanks, -Monica 3. Sorry for the last minute but …I recently grabbed Lawbreaking ladies by Erika Own and was wanting more anthologies about females. I love regency era and was wondering if there were any books like this about female rulers or female celebrities. Preferably nonfiction but I guess any female led anthologies would do. I have A Universe of Wishes that came out last December. -Rianna 4. Hi! I am looking for books as either how to guides or inspiration on living a life that is less consumer focused. I’m interested in environmental sustainability as well as economic sustainability. I’m trying to retrain my brain from turning want into need and from thinking I need to spend money on all the things in order to be happy, but ignoring/avoiding all the marketing designed to make me think those things is hard to do. I’m currently reading “Braiding Sweetgrass” which is inspiring me to do more and be better, not just for my wallet and personal well-being, but for the planet as well. Any resources would be greatly appreciated! Thank you! -Bre 5. Hi there, I’m a 23-year old who has dealt with mental illness for the best part of a decade. In the last few months my depression has become a lot worse. I am still able to read and find it a good escapism from my mind particularly the fantasy genre which I delved into for the first time. However, I’d like to read some more books to help me understand or feel less alone with my condition. I’m open to all genres – fiction, memoir, etc. – though I’d prefer something not too academic/scientific. Also could you avoid Matt Haig (no hate but his books aren’t really for me). Thank you x -Kate 6. Hi, I’ve been listening to a lot of songs from The Beach Boys, they make me think of a relaxing island or beach town. Also, summer is coming! I know it sounds weird but can you recommend me books that feel like a Beach Boys song. Bonus points if there’s surf involved. Love from Barcelona, Spain! -Meri 7. I am looking for adult fantasy romance/epic book recommendations. I became hooked with Sara J. Maas books, and I especially loved the COTAR series. I love the world building, strong female characters and hot heros. I am looking for something epic that’s not YA, with adventure, suspense and definitely a steamy romance, but with good writing!

In this episode, we explore two amazing types of transformation. First, we investigate and practice the process of fulling: intentionally shrinking cloth for a thicker, denser result. Rumpel has the most amazing swatches and processes to share. So many, in fact, that you may want to keep your show notes open in order to see all the before-and-after images that she discusses. Plus, Frog tells some Greco-Roman flower myths. Did you know that the Daffodil, Crocus, and Hyacinths that you love to see blooming this time of year are all that remain of youth and beauty attributed to some famous young men of Greek myth? Tune in to explore these tales of transformation, our works in progress, the projects that are providing us with springtime inspiration, and so much more. --- Send in a voice message: https://anchor.fm/no353l5/message

Important Events January 5, 1786 On this day, a winter-blooming hawthorn- the iconic Glastonbury Thorn - blossomed. In all previous years, the beautiful Glastonberry Thorn, Crataegus monogyna 'Biflora' (“Cra-TAY-gus Mon-uhj-EYE-ah”) had flowered on Christmas Day. But by 1786, Britain had adopted the Gregorian calendar, which affected the bloom time, and so the tree bloomed eleven days past schedule. Unlike other hawthorns, the Glastonbury Thorn miraculously flowers twice a year. The first bloom occurs in winter around Christmas time, which is why it has long been considered sacred. The second flush occurs in spring around Easter - hence the name ‘biflora.’ And every Christmas, a budded branch is sent to the Queen. Legend has it that the original plant - widely called the holy thorn - was planted in Somerset, more than 2000 years ago, by the Uncle of Jesus Christ, Joseph of Arimathea. And so the legend says that after the crucifixion, Joseph visited the area and pushed his walking staff into the ground where it rooted and became the holy thorn. In 1986, the Glastonbury Thorn was featured on a beautiful Christmas stamp. But the recent history of the tree is not so happy. In 2010, vandals removed almost every branch from the Glastonbury Thorn. Thankfully, Kew’s arboretum team arrived in time to take cuttings from some of the damaged branches. With the help of these skilled arborists, the mother tree was replaced, and sister trees were planted in other secret locations throughout England. January 5, 1780 Today is the anniversary of the death of the English academic, attorney, politician, and gardener, who sat in the House of Commons, Robert More. A passionate amateur botanist, the botanist Philip Miller, named the plant genus Morea (“Mor-AY-ah”) in honor of Robert More. But later, Carl Linnaeus altered the spelling to Moraea (“mor-ah-EE-uh”) to honor his wife’s maiden name. And in 1803, the Belgium painter Pierre-Joseph Redouté created one of the most beautiful early illustrations of Morea. Morea is a rare and delicate plant in the Iris family. Moreas are not as hardy as the common iris. And instead of growing from rhizomes or bulbs, Moreas grow from corms. Unlike bulbs, corms are a little different because they don’t have a bulb’s layered scales. Corms produce little cormlets that can be broken away from the parent plant for propagation. Familiar plants that grow from corms include gladiolus and crocus. Like bulbs, corms thrive in nutrient-rich, well-draining soil. Most corm perennials prefer sunny locations and when you plant them, make sure to plant them with the pointed side up at a depth about four times the size of the corm - that's a good rule of thumb. In case you’re wondering, you can find Morea in some specialty bulb catalogs. January 5, 1874 On this day, the English merchant and author Henry Arthur Bright recorded a rather bleak comment about winter gardens in his famous book called Year in a Lancashire Garden. “A ‘winter garden’ is generally nothing more than a garden of small evergreens, which, of course, is an improvement on bare soil, but which is in itself not singularly interesting.” Unearthed Words The January 1860 garden column of the famous fashion magazine the New Monthly Belle Assemblee recommended the Hyacinth Bottle and Flower Support as being ideal for growing [Hyacinths] indoors. The slender bottle with bulbous base was nothing new; hyacinths were often grown in water, not soil, in these small glass vases, which usually came in a variety of colors from cranberry red to cobalt blue, but the supporting wire was an innovation, designed to support the stem with its heavy bloom and keep it all neat and tidy. — Mandy Kirkby, gardener and garden writer, A Victorian Flower Dictionary Grow That Garden Library A Nature Poem for Every Day of the Year by Jane Hunter This book came out in 2018, and it’s one of my favorite books. In this book, Jane has selected 365 of the most beautiful poems ever written. “From William Wordsworth’s springtime daffodils and Christina Rossetti’s birdsong to John Keats's autumnal odes and Longfellow’s “Woods in Winter,” these poems pay tribute to the beauty of nature and the changing seasons. Works from such beloved writers as William Blake, Robert Burns, Emily Dickinson, Ralph Waldo Emerson, John Keats, Amy Lowell, and Shakespeare take you through the year, along with 12 evocative black-and-white line drawings. Enjoy Thomas Hardy’s “Birds at Winter Nightfall,” Robert Frost’s “Spring Pools,” Rudyard Kipling’s “The Glory of the Garden,” Elizabeth Jennings’s “Song at the Beginning of Autumn,” and many more.” I carry this beautiful book around in my backpack, and I refer to it all the time. This book is 496 pages of inspiring poems about the natural world curated for every day of the year. You can get a copy of A Nature Poem for Every Day of the Year by Jane Hunter and support the show using the Amazon Link in today's Show Notes for around $16. Today’s Botanic Spark Reviving the little botanic spark in your heart In England, tonight, there’s an ancient custom - an old pagan ritual - that involves waking up the apple cider trees with wassailing on the 12th night of Christmas. The written folklore around wassailing says that if you wassail apple trees on January 5th, the 12th day after Christmas, you’ll reap a bountiful harvest in the year. Apples fall under the rose plant family, which also includes other fruits like peaches, pears, plums, and cherries. Now, Cider apples are not great eating apples. They tend to be small, not especially attractive, and bittersweet - which may be why Benjamin Franklin famously said, “It’s bad to eat apples. It is better to turn them all into cider.” If you’ve ever bobbed for apples and wondered why apples float - it’s because they’re made up of 25 percent air. Thus it takes roughly 36 apples to make a single gallon of apple cider. And do you store your apples in a bowl on the table? If so, bear in mind that apples can ripen up to ten times faster when stored at room temperature instead of being kept in the fridge. Although it takes most apple trees on average four to five years to produce fruit, an average tree yields 840 pounds of fruit once they start producing. Now wassail means “good health,” and by wassailing the trees, you wish for good tree health, fertility, and productivity. Tonight's wassail tradition involves many elements. There's someone dressed as a Green Man - a man of the earth - who usually leads the festivities. There’s the crowning of a King and Queen of the wassail. Then the King and Queen lead the wassailers to the orchard or a special apple tree. At the tree, cider is poured on the soil around the tree, a symbolic return of the fruit's blessing. Then, bread is dipped in cider and left on the branches for the robins and other creatures in nature. Then toasting the tree with a traditional song that goes: Old apple tree we wassail thee And hope that thou will bear For the Lord doth know Where we shall be Come apples another year. For to bloom well And to bear well so merry let us be Let every man take off his hat And shout out to the old apple tree. For to bloom well And to bear well so merry let us be Let every man take off his hat And shout out to the old apple tree. Chant: Old Apple tree, we wassail thee, And hope that thou will bare Hatfuls! Capfuls! Three-bushel bagfuls! And a little heap under the stairs! Hip Hip Hooray! Hip Hip Hooray! Hip Hip Hooray! Then there’s the clanging of pots and pans, hooting and hollering, and shooting off cap guns and shotguns to scare away all the evil spirits - the final step in a thorough wassail of an apple tree. Thanks for listening to The Daily Gardener. And remember: "For a happy, healthy life, garden every day."

Sometimes the answer to your biggest problem is in fact the problem itself. In this episode, we discuss a new pilot project in Glades County involving AguaCulture and my family's Lazy JP Ranch. This pilot project sponsored by the Florida Fish and Wildlife Conservation Commission along with the United States Army Corps of Engineers, co-sponsored by the South Florida Water Management District, and funded through the Florida Department of Environmental Protection seeks to employee a radically improved system for mechanical harvesting of invasive aquatic vegetation, converting it into an organic resource that leads to the removal of nutrients from our state's water bodies. No one method of control will solve the challenge ahead of us, but this new approach has the potential to be a very powerful weapon in the arsenal. ***** Become a supporter; sign up as a Patreon Member ! ***** Find Florida Art and Ranch Inspired Gear at Cowhunters Unlimited

Amanda and Jenn discuss Asian sci-fi, books about mental illness, starter graphic novels, and more in this week's episode of Get Booked. This episode is sponsored by Goodbye, Vitamin by Rachel Khong and Meddling Kids by Edgar Cantero. Questions 1. I have never read a graphic novel but am excited to get into them. However I really am just not into fantasy or sci fi. Where should I start? Thank you! --Sara 2. Hi, I am looking for science fiction set in Asia by Asian writers for my bookclub and to read something in the vein of #ownvoices. I would prefer it not to be YA, but it is not a requirement. I tend to like science fiction with great characters over great science. --Sidsel 3. Hey Jenn and Amanda, I've been thinking and don't know how I missed this in my reading life. But some of my favorite movies are multi-generational female-lead stories that jump back and forth in their timelines. Examples are movies like Fried Green Tomatoes, How to Make an American Quilt, and Now and Then. Please help correct this 90's kid's need for some lady-friendships books. --Teenie 4. I recently read The Vegetarian and I found it absolutely incredible. I have made it a mission to try to read other translated books. What are some suggestions you have? Thanks --Ashley 5. Can you please recommend books with characters with mental illness? I recently been diagnosed with bipolar disorder and it really helps reading about characters that go through similar experiences. I read 'It's kind of a funny story' 'The rest of us just live here' and 'All the bright places'. I enjoy YA, but I would like to read other genres as well. (I usually like my books as diverse as possible) Thank you for your help! --Theodora 6. You two seem to know a lot about diversity in fiction so I figured I'd ask you two instead of taking my question to google (I figure you both will offer me better quality recs). So I'm a big reader of fantasy. It's always been my favorite, and preferred reading genre. However I'm also a gay man who enjoys reading about gay men (preferably if a romance is involved), so to find that I've pretty much had to go outside the fantasy genre for that one. I'd love it if I could read a (quality) fantasy novel with gay characters, and maybe a little bit of romance. I'm so excited to hear what you two have to recommend, this is my favorite podcast, and I've read so many amazing books because of you two. --Sam 7. I'm trying to get into post apocalyptic books, but don't know where to start. I recently read Station 11, and now I want more. There seems to be no shortage of YA post apocalyptic novels, but I've read several, and so far have not liked any of the ones I have read. I've never NOT liked YA, but I've never been too crazy about it either, so I figure I better look at 'adult' (I'M SO SORRY. I DON'T LIKE CALLING IT THAT EITHER) books of the genre. Thanks so much you two! I can't wait to hear what you two have to recommend. --Chloe 8. I am a sucker for sad books, especially those that revolve around loneliness. The History of Love, Everything I Never Told You, and Oryx and Crake (is that an odd third?) were all fantastically devastating for me. I am looking for recommendations that will send me to that despairing place in the company of the fictional. --Sasha Books Discussed The Rise and Fall of D.O.D.O. by Neal Stephenson and Nicole Galland Isaac’s Storm by Erik Larson March, Book 1 by John Lewis This One Summer by Mariko Tamaki and Jillian Tamaki Invisible Planets, edited by Ken Liu The Sea Is Ours, edited by Jaymee Goh and Joyce Chng The Joy Luck Club by Amy Tan Mama Day by Gloria Naylor Penance by Kanae Minato, translated by Philip Gabriel The Queue by Basma Abdel Aziz, translated by Elisabeth Jaquette Haldol and Hyacinths by Melody Moezzi Hyperbole and a Half by Allie Brosh Captive Prince by CS Pacat Amberlough by Lara Elena Donnelly The Age of Miracles by Karen Thompson Walker Borne by Jeff VanderMeer Shelter by Jung Yun A Girl is a Half-Formed Thing by Eimear McBride

This four-part episode focuses on stories of war and combat and the various effects it has on the psyche. With Memorial Day right around the corner, we figured it was the perfect time to run these stories, some of which are written by veterans. Claude Smith ("R&R") leads off the episode, followed by Clayton Bradshaw ("How to Care for Hyacinths"), Christine Estopare ("Fate and Starlight"), and Gary Beck ("The Man Who Shot Stonewall Jackson"). As a warning to our listeners, all but one of our stories grapples with suicide in one way or another and deal with some mature content and themes.
