HOW ABOUT SOME GLOW IN THE DARK PETUNIAS? As gardening is my official hobby now I'm actually pretty excited to have Audrey Sharpe and Matt Niemann on the show. This year Plum Creek Garden Market is excited to announce the debut of the Firefly Petunia, the first bioluminescent petunia for sale (glow in the dark). This year we encourage Colorado gardeners to consider planting more native plants that have adapted to Colorado's elevation and climate over generations. Audrey and Matt join me at 2:30 to talk about it, find your local Plum Creek Garden Market by clicking here.

Eduardo Barba nos cuenta las peculiaridades de algunas plantas que llenarán de color y aroma sus patios, terrazas, balcones y jardines. Helechos que aportan verdes y frondas cobrizas a las zonas de sombra, petunias y calibranchoas de todas las tonalidades para acompañar y dejarse  descolgar... Y salvias.    

En el 'Comando Norte' recorremos el mapa de las macrogranjas en España con la guía de José Manuel Marraco, abogado especializado en Derecho Ambiental. Damos la bienvenida en el club de las 'Miss Experiencia' a Esperanza, la única de las 'reinas de Triana' que nos faltaba por conocer. Eduardo Barba introduce en nuestro jardín nuevas petunias y calibrachoas. Y en '15 minutos de fama' Martín Bianchi nos habla sobre la graduación de la infanta Sofía y el reencuentro de Iñaki Urdangarin y Cristina.

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.

Retired Ball technical manager Dr. Will Healy joins host Bill Calkins to share protocols for finishing Wave petunias as part of the Tech On Demand series covering crop culture for key annuals and perennials. From media selection and nutrition to water, light and temperature, finishing crops requires careful attention to avoid losses and send high quality product out the door on time. In this discussion, Will continues our finished crop miniseries on petunias by sharing nuances for finishing Waves, especially looking at the differences in culture between Wave and common seed-raised petunias. Some of these intricacies include crop times, nutrition, photoperiod research specific to Wave and more.   As Will and Bill continue to say, PanAmerican Seed (the breeding company behind Wave) has done so much research into Wave and has developed tools to practically ensure success with this amazing collection of series and varieties. Some of these tools are listed below.   FINISHED CROP VIDEOS—FULL PLAYLIST   Resources:   PanAmerican Seed—All Wave Information: https://www.panamseed.com/Products/Brands/Wave/   Wave Smart Scheduling Tool: https://www.panamseed.com/Products/Brands/Wave/SmartSchedule/

This episode, we will talk about the one thing we all wanted to see but never did: Eve and Roarke's Wedding! We attempt to answer some of the questions that you all might have, including: Big or small guest list? Did Eve walk down the isle on her own, or with Feeney? Or Mavis? What music played when she walked down the isle? Did they write their own vows? Do some spin on a Celtic ceremony? Was the seating Brides Side and Groom's Side or everyone sitting wherever they wanted? Was there a sit down dinner or a buffet? Or both? What kind of food did they serve? What song did they dance their first dance to? Was there a bouquet toss? A garter toss? Thank you to Jeanne Topic for picking the topic this week, and to all of you who gave us your thoughts.

IT IS ONCE AGAIN TIME TO STAND AGAINST FASCISM! | Podcast [ Protest Art ] [ No to War! ] Nama Jafari: It is once again time to stand against fascism! Recent Russia's military aggression has created dreadful days for Ukrainian people and the whole world. People are witnessing the invasion of a European country by a great power, for the first time since the second world war. Hundreds from both sides, civilians or military forces, have been killed in the conflicts that we should call the “Putin's war”. Recent events have faced European leaders with darkest moments since 1945. World leaders need to realise that if they don't help Ukrainians today against Putin's fascism, 'tomorrow, war will knock on their own doors'. Where are artists, writers, and intellectuals standing in this situation? Up to this moment, recording this podcast episode, majority of the artists, writers and left or right-wing intellectuals have failed in the Ukraine crisis. They haven't done any anti-war activity for the lonely nation of Ukraine. We have to ask, why are you silent? Do you still think the world is vast? Do you think if there is a burning home somewhere in this world, it doesn't concern you? You can sit in your balcony and enjoy your silly Petunias? Ignorance makes you a partner in crime. The scary paradox of war against Ukraine is that on one side the existence of a nation is at stake, and on the other side there is an insane tyrant. If this war proceeds as Putin wishes, it will be the victory of tyranny over a nation's existence and their right to live and their freedom of choice. And if not, if the Ukrainian people do not surrender, we can expect insane reactions from Putin. Once there is a bomb hole in a school's playground, the kids will ask, has the world already forgotten the mistakes of the 21st century? In this episode we will explore the evil phenomenon of war and its reflection in cinema and music. ***********

Vi læser kapitlet gennem temaet flugt, idet det beskriver utallige både indre og ydre flugtstrategier. Blandt andet ser vi, hvordan Harrys ukuelige optimisme på varierede måder giver ham mulighed for at flygte fra de forhold, familien Dursley lader ham leve under. Harrys flugtstrategier adskiller sig betydeligt fra Vernon Dursleys, hvis insisteren på at ignorere alt unormalt udvikler sig til et væld af absurditeter, når han ofrer alt i kampen mod en mystisk ydre trussel. I lumossegmentet har Rikke undersøgt de to mugglerskoler, som Harry og Dudley er optaget på.Vi kommer blandt andet omkring følgende spørgsmål:- Hvordan bidrager J.K. Rowlings metaforbrug til at tegne et billede af Vernon som en hærfører i krig?- Hvorfor er Petunias tøjfarvning irrationel?- Hvorfor er Vernon og Petunia så bange for at lade Harry modtage sit brev?

Vi læser kapitlet gennem temaet normalitet, hvilket bringer os fra Dursleyfamiliens nærmest hysteriske afsky over for anormaliteter til normalitetsbegrebet i den magiske verden. Desuden diskuterer vi fortællerstemmens betydning for læserens opfattelse af det normale og det unormale. Til vores Lumossegment har Rikke undersøgt betydningen af Lily og Petunias navne.Vi kommer blandt andet omkring følgende spørgsmål:- Hvem handler kapitlet og Harry Potter-bøgerne egentlig om - og hvordan kan et enkelt ord i kapitel 1 give os et praj om dette?- Hvilken betydning har dørtrin, klokkeslæt og vejsving for forholdet mellem mugglernes og magikernes verden?- Hvordan kan viden om botanik gøre os klogere på ligheder og forskelle mellem Ewansøstrene?

The couple lived on the Hampton Plantation built by John's great-uncle Charles  Ridgely III in 1790. After construction, it was the largest private residence in the United States. Eliza was the third mistress of Hampton and an avid gardener. During the decades following their marriage, Eliza and John had five children, and Eliza spent a great deal of time improving Hampton’s gardens and landscape. In 1859, the horticulturist Henry Winthrop Sargent wrote that “[Hampton] expresses more grandeur than any other place in America.” He was not a fan of that grandeur - Henry preferred a more natural garden landscape. Hampton’s garden landscape history dates back to the late 1780s when Captain Charles Ridgely acquired an Irish-born gardener and indentured servant named Daniel Healy. Daniel oversaw the Great Terrace’s creation with its winding path and the 80x50-foot parterres that make up Hampton’s Falling Gardens. Eliza left her mark on the gardens at Hampton by doing something completely different. She fell in love with the Victorian garden trend of “carpet bedding,” which leveraged plant colors to create designs - like diamonds or circles. Other plants just provided contrasting colors. In his book, The Garden Triumphant, David Stuart said, “In the early Victorian bedding system, plant individualities were of no importance, each individual [plant] merely yielding the color of its flowers to the general show… The obsession with ‘show’ with plants merely as a ‘blaze of colors’ was all.” Regarded as an accomplished gardener and horticulturist, Eliza had grand garden dreams. She installed extensive gardens, and her love for carpet bedding would have been a radical departure from gardening etiquette of the time. Because, before this trend, it was considered poor taste to plant a plant next to another one of the same color and variety. That was a big no-no. In fact, in 1839, Henry Winthrop Sargent issued another dig at Eliza’s formal gardens when he said, they"quite disturb one's ideas of republican America.” He was definitely not a fan. Over 4,000 acres surrounded Hampton House, and Eliza had more than enough room to develop impressive greenhouses, which along with the lavish gardens, were tended by slaves. And many people who tour Hampton today are surprised to learn that. They were not aware that slavery existed as far north as Maryland. During their marriage, Eliza and John loved to travel, and on their journeys through Europe and Asia, Eliza collected exotic trees and plants for her Hampton gardens. Eliza’s love of citrus trees led to creating an orangery to help her citrus collection survive the harsh Baltimore winters. Eliza Ridgely added specimen trees to Hampton’s formal landscape. Today a Lebanon Cedar stands on the mansion’s south lawn of the Great Terrace. And Ridgely family history says that Eliza brought the exotic tree to Hampton as a little seedling in a shoebox from the Middle East. Eliza also selected the white and pink Saucer Magnolias that bloom in the spring and the magnificent fan-leafed ginkgo at the corner of the house. But, the oldest trees on the property are catalpas that predate the home. And although they are quite common now, Eliza brought urns to Hampton. Made of Italian marble, Eliza’s fashionable urns surrounded the mansion. Now during Eliza’s lifetime, the urns would have been called “vases,” and they were meant to add classical beauty to the garden. In 1854, American Farmer Magazine wrote that Eliza’s gardens expressed “more grandeur than anything in America.” The magazine also admired her irrigation system, saying that, “a reservoir at the mansion… radiates to different sections of the garden where hydrants are placed, and by a hose, the entire garden can be watered at pleasure.  Last summer, when all other places in the neighborhood were dry and barren, the flower garden at Hampton presented a gorgeous array of bloom… Petunias, Verbenas, Geraniums, and other summer flowering plants, looked as though they lacked no moisture there.” With the end of slavery after the Civil War, the Hampton estate fell into decline as the family struggled to maintain it.  A little while later, Eliza died at the age of 64. She was buried in the family cemetery on the estate. Today the Hampton estate is a National Historic Site. And if you go to visit it someday, it's worth noting that the plants today are different. Many of the plants that are on the property need to be deer-resistant. The famous portrait of the long-necked Eliza Ridgely standing beside her harp was painted by Thomas Sully - it hangs today in the National Gallery of Art.   January 8, 1892 Today is the birthday of the agricultural botanist and plant wizard Walter Tennyson Swingle. Walter was a very popular botanist during his lifetime. Walter introduced the Date Palm to California, and he created many new citruses through hybridizing. In 1897, Walter made the first man-made cross of a Bowen Grapefruit and a Dancy Tangerine in Eustis, Florida. In 1909, Walter created the Limequat, a cross between the Key Lime and the Kumquat. That same year, Walter created the Citrangequat, a trigeneric citrus hybrid of a Citrange and a Kumquat. Walter developed the Citrange, a combination of the Sweet Orange and the trifoliate orange, as he was attempting to breed an orange tree that could withstand colder weather. Walter was born in Pennsylvania. He knew all about cold weather. His family quickly moved to Kansas, where Walter was home-schooled and ultimately educated at Kansas State Agricultural College.  In short order, Walter began working for the government at the United States Bureau of Plant Industry in the Department of Agriculture. And the USDA immediately put him to work, sending him to nearly every country in the world. Walter brought Egyptian Cotton to Arizona and Acala Cotton to California. However, Walter's most significant accomplishment was the introduction of the Date Palm to America. The Date Palm was something swingle discovered during a visit to Algeria. And this is how we know how clever Walter was - he was indeed intelligent and observant because he noticed that Algeria’s climate and soil mirrored that of California. In fact, Walter was optimistic about the Date Palm's chances in California right from the get-go, writing: “No heat is too great and no air too dry for this remarkable plant, which is actually favored by a rainless climate and by hot desert winds.  The Date Palm can withstand great alkali quantities in the soil- more than any other useful plant…  It is probably the only profitable crop that can succeed permanently.’ Now when the Date Palm arrived in California, the Coachella Valley was identified as the perfect spot to grow them. By 1920, over a hundred thousand pounds of Dates were grown in California. Thanks to Walter Swingle, Dates are one of California's main exports. Today, the total value of the Date crop is approaching $100 million every single year.   Unearthed Words January is a time when you should be thinking and planning, ordering your seed potatoes, vegetable seeds, fertilizers, and so on, and making sure that your tools are in good order and that you are ready to begin gardening in real earnest next month, or as soon as local conditions will let you. — Ministry of Agriculture, “Dig For Victory” Pamphlet, January 1945   Grow That Garden Library A Place For Us by Harriet Evans This book came out in 2015, and this is a best-selling fiction book. I bought this book a few years ago when I saw the beautiful alliums on the cover - I love alliums - and along with many of my fiction favorites, the cover is incredibly appealing to gardeners. A Place for Us is, “an engrossing novel about a woman who, on the eve of her eightieth birthday, decides to reveal a secret that may destroy her perfect family.” Kirkus Reviews wrote: "From an English estate called Winterfold, Martha Winter sends out invitations for her 80th birthday party with a puzzling statement:  'There will be an important announcement. We ask that you please be there.'  Only her husband, David, a well-known cartoonist, knows what this announcement might be.  The Winters have been fixtures in their Somerset village for 45 years, raising their three children, Florence, Bill, and Daisy.  Told from the perspectives of various family members as they receive Martha's invitations, it's clear this family's story is full of unanswered questions.” This book is 448 pages of a heartwarming, true-to-life family saga - the perfect book to blissfully carry you away this winter. You can get a copy of A Place For Us by Harriet Evans (and enjoy the beautiful cover) and support the show using the Amazon Link in today's Show Notes for around $2. Treat yourself!   Today’s Botanic Spark Reviving the little botanic spark in your heart January 8, 2000 Today is the anniversary of the death of a leading botanist in the study of ferns, Warren “Herb” Wagner, Jr. Herb was the founder of modern systematics for plants and animals. Biologists still use "Wagner trees” to classify plants and animals based on presumed phylogenetic relationships and evolutionary history - DNA hard at work! Herb Wagner once said,  "Deer in the winter are nature's closest thing to actual zombies.  They chew everything in their path."   Thanks for listening to The Daily Gardener.

This week, we talk about the collective pearl clutching (or maybe chain clutching) from the hip-hop community in response to Meghan and Cardi's "WAP" video.

This is a message talking about walking in victory. God wants us to live a victorious life in Christ, and in order to do that we need to create sustainable habits that will allow us to grow and change over time so that we can have long lasting change and growth like a tree, rather than a flower.

In episode 2 of the Solutions4Turf Podcast, we talk with Scott Wheeler, Regional Sales Representative for First Turf and Ornamental. Scott shares his success using Worm Power Turf in his former role as head Horticulturalist at Oak Hill Country Club. Scott says it's all about the roots. Once he was able to develop a strong root system, all great benefits would follow. More robust flowering, greater yields in vegetable harvests.
