The Friday Newsletter | Daily Gardener Community Botanical History On This Day 1745 The English botanist John Bradby Blake [BRAD-bee BLAKE] is born. Though he lived a tragically short life - dying at just twelve days after his 28th birthday - John left behind an extraordinary legacy that bridges East and West through botanical art and discovery. 1877 William Rickatson Dykes [RICK-et-sun DYKES] is born in Bayswater, London. Though he began his career as a classics teacher at Charterhouse School, it was his passion for irises that would ultimately define his legacy. 1884 Harry Ferguson is born near Dromara [droh-MAR-ah] in County Down, Ireland. While we often think of gardening in terms of hand tools and intimate connections with the soil, Ferguson revolutionized how we cultivate the earth on a grand scale.

Another week, another BOOKSPO pairing. I'm so excited to bring you my conversation with Shawna Lemay all about how a chance encounter with Annie Dillard's PILGRIM AT TINKER CREEK at an Edmonton bookshop in the 1990s created a path that's led all the way to here and Lemay's latest book, the essay collection APPLES ON THE WINDOWSILL. Shawna talks about the notion of pre-internet books, why she likes seeing the world with her camera, how APPLES ON THE WINDOWSILL is an indoor book (not a single muskrat!), what Annie Dillard has to tell us about still-life, and what we can learn from the still-lives on our kitchen counters. This conversation is a celebration of the extraordinary ordinary, and I'm so happy to share it with you! About APPLES ON THE WINDOWSILL:Apples on a Windowsill is a series of meditations on still life, photography, beauty, and marriage. Full of personal reflections, charming anecdotes, and the history behind the art of still lifes, this lyrical memoir takes us from Edmonton to Rome to museums all over North America as Lemay discusses the craft of writing, the ups and downs of being married to a painter, and her focus on living a life in art and in beauty. A must read for fans of The Flower Can Always Be Changing, Everything Affects Everyone, and Rumi and the Red Handbag.Shawna Lemay is the author of The Flower Can Always Be Changing (shortlisted for the 2019 Wilfred Eggleston Award for Non-Fiction) and the novel, Rumi and the Red Handbag, which made Harper's Bazaar's #THELIST. She has also written multiple books of poetry, a book of essays, and the experimental novel Hive. All the God-Sized Fruit, her first book, won the Stephan G. Stephansson Award and the Gerald Lampert Memorial Award. Calm Things: Essays was shortlisted for the Wilfred Eggleston Award for Non-Fiction. She lives in Edmonton.

This week Margo and her sister play a bit of a role reversal and Margo is interviewed In the Windowsill! As the creator and host of the podcast, Margo rarely shares intimately about herself but she figured it was time to change that. Margo shares her experience with wire art and the moment a piece of art went from an act of creativity to monetized creativity, working in wholesale, collaborating with artists to create unique retail products, and bridging the gap between creatives and their businesses. She also discusses her love of music, the personal growth she's experienced over the past year, and her current pursuits in silversmithing and jewelry making. With the help of Shelley, Margo explores her insights on reinvention, self-reflection, and her plans for 2024.

Margo is joined by former teacher & blogger turned entrepreneur, and second time guest in the Windowsill, Anna Huff. As a business mindset coach, Anna works to empower women to pursue their passions and live in authentic alignment with who they were divinely designed to be. Through years of burnout and struggling to find alignment, Anna played small. Thinking that if she just did more, worked harder, learned more, and achieved more she would find what she was looking for. What she discovered was that nothing she could ever do, earn, or say would make her any more worthy of becoming who she was divinely designed to be. Through the process of fully discovering her purpose, she now helps others master their own mindset practice in order to live in alignment and acceptance of who they really are. Margo and Anna discuss: Permission and acceptance to be multi passionate Human design and how it allows you to go deeper in self-discovery How to sit in the discomfort and feel your way through fear The mindset shift that made meditating easier for her What success mindset is and how to operate from it Detaching from the outcome Not letting fear have all the fun Vulnerability, openness, and growing awareness to one's thoughts Connect with Anna: www.instagram.com/theannahuff www.facebook.com/theannahuff www.theannahuff.com Join the Mindset & Marketing Facebook Group

Margo is joined by cousins Ben Braden and Nick Sadler, otherwise known as Strange Hotels - the writers and producers of Need Your Trouble, featured in the introduction for every episode of Windowsill Chats! After touring for years as a part of Portland's iconic touring band The Lower 48, Ben and Nick formed their indie-electro duo Strange Hotels in early 2018, and within weeks of forming the duo, they had the opportunity to open for Billie Eilish and Finneas at the Crystal Ballroom in Portland. Their songs have been featured in several TV shows including Shameless, Viceʼs King Of The Road, and Conan O'Brien's Needs a Friend. Nick & Ben describe Strange Hotels as the most collaborative project they have been a part of- and are a sonic blend of dance, R&B, vintage pop, and indie rock. They have taken a very DIY approach to recording their songs, recording and producing their music solely on iPads. They moved to Los Angeles in 2019 quickly booking a residency at their favorite club, writing new songs, and releasing their second EP, Mixtape II. Margo, Ben and Nick discuss: The transition from The Lower 48 to Strange Hotels Moving to LA 5 months before the pandemic heat and how it affected their work How being able to do what they enjoy at an early age benefitted them Their willingness to be broke and commonality for being bad at having a boss and how it aided in their success down the road Finding different ways to share their music How the music industry currently works, streaming platforms, and finding new ways to be financially successful The unglamorous side of the entertainment industry Connect with Strange Hotels: Get Mixtape III for free by texting ‘Heard you on WC I'd love Mixtape III' to 651-538-6961 Listen to Strange Hotels on Spotify https://www.instagram.com/strange_hotels/

On the morning of July 1, 1800, a surveyor and mapmaker named Cayetano Díaz opened the window of his study in Guatemala City to find a horrific sight: a pair of severed breasts. Offering a meticulously researched and evocative account of the quest to find the perpetrator and understand the motives behind such a brutal act, this volume pinpoints the sensational crime as a watershed moment in Guatemalan history that radically changed the nature of justice and the established social order. In The Woman on the Windowsill: A Tale of Mystery in Several Parts (Yale UP, 2020), Sylvia Sellers-García reveals how this bizarre and macabre event spurred an increased attention to crime that resulted in more forceful policing and reflected important policy decisions not only in Guatemala but across Latin America. This fascinating book is both an engaging criminal case study and a broader consideration of the forces shaping Guatemala City at the brink of the modern era. Elspeth Currie is a PhD student in the Department of History at Boston College where she studies women's intellectual history in early modern Europe. Learn more about your ad choices.

Chef Amy talks with the talented minds behind New Orleans' Windowsill Pies. Originally aired on January 23rd 2019.
Things we talk about in the episode:Why we love pelargoniumsscent of leavesmusky stringent smellbad breathtomato foliagethe easiness of themFibrex nurseriesThe National Collection of PelargoniumsHeather's growing historyLearning about pelargoniums, ferns and iviesThe difference between pelargoniums and geraniumsFamily: GeraneacaeSame family, different genus:Genus: Pelargonium (southern hemisphere, tender, succulent or woody shrubs)Genus: Geranium (northern hemisphere, cranesbill. Hardy, herbaceous perennial)You can't hybridise between the two - most definitely two different things!Geranium for pelargonium is WRONG because it's misleadingIf you can't say pelargonium, just call them pelliesPelargoniums are really tough in the right environmentReplicate SA in the UKLoam based, open, free draining compostWater managementGood light, even over winterNo darkness, no dinginessIn England that's difficult, but not impossibleGood airflowIn a cool environment - Strip off a lot of the leaves which they don't need because they're not growing and you're not watering.Zonals, decoratives, uniques, scenteds can have majority of leaves lower down taken off, leaving just the growing tipGets rid of mildew, mould, botrytis etc at the same time - bonus!Allows good airflow which is essentialKeeping pelargoniums indoors as houseplantsAvoid a kitchen or bathroom environment - too dampSitting room, living room, porch, Close to window or on windowsill. Natural daylight - doesn't have to be direct sunlightFeed:Tomato feed like TomoriteFirst feed of season should be a balanced feed but otherwise Tomorite as soon as you see fresh young growthBeddingZonal pelargoniums are still used for bedding - can look stunningKey is to mass-plant with just one colour. Colour match with neighbouring plantsKey group within zonals: Bold series - good chunky, strong growing with short stems and lots of flowers which are shatter-proof.Use decorative, uniques and scented for gap-filling too!Attar of roses, Grey Lady Plymouth in a mixed border - Chocolate peppermint and Tomentosum at Wisley - looked amazingContainers:Potting compost magic formula; John Innes no. 2 and multi-purpose compost half and halfRe-pot in spring and you don't need to feed for a month because of JI You cant over-feed a pellie!Feed every time you waterIf you want to get flowers like you see in the shows then you have to feed them! They're on steroidsPinching out.Young cuttings - single stem. Once rooted and growing, pinch out top leaf and newest bud. Leaving a couple of live axils below means it will start to branch out. It's not about height, it's about body.Keep pinching outFibrex takes cuttings in August through to April. The pinching out happens throughout, until February. From buds, flowers will appear in six weeks. Pinching out is instinctive and takes practice, but not a lot of time if you've got a few pots outside the door.Dead heading.Pelargoniums LOVE to flower. If you take off the untidy ones it will grow more as soon as possible. If you leave them, the plant slows down.Heather deadheads every plant, every week - LOTS of work! Not so for a few pots.Snap bottom of flower stem between fingers and it will come off naturallyOverwintering.CuttingsPrepare your pot, 9 -12 cm Sterile seed compost and perlite or grit for drainage, Pat mixture down and saturate with water. Take cuttings, 2 inches at most depending on variety. Heather takes tip cuttings with one or two leaf nodes. Strip bottom leaves off, leaving growing tip and a couple of leaves at top. After 4-5 days give another drink. 5-10 cuttings in a 9cm pot. Cuttings really do like company. Heather pushes her cuttings straight in - no dibber and no rooting hormone.Heather likes to keep the leaves touching in the nursery.Leaving pelargoniums in pots over winterStart in September to prepare them by feeding them with a general purpose feedStops them from flowering. Take a third off in Autumn and strip the leaves. Re-pot in spring with fresh compost, fluffing up the roots. Water in lightly. After a couple of weeks, general feed and then put outside. Night temps should be around five degrees - leave till mid may or end of may. If you want them to continue flowering in a conservatory then just keep feeding tomato food.Windowsill with radiator is fine as they like a dry environmentBest are dwarves and miniatures for permanent flowering as they won't outgrow their space.Other overwintering ideas:Hanging the upside-down. Used to be done. It's a bit extreme and not entirely necessary. You can leave in the compost just ease off on the watering.Pests and diseases. The whitefly clap. Use invigorators rather than insecticides. SB invigorator gives the plant extra and has ammonia which whitefly hate. Good for spider mite too. Spidermite like dry environments Greenfly like the soft young growth. Squish.Pelargonium starter-kit for newbiesScented: Attar of Roses. The gorgeousness of it!Decorative: Ashby. Strong, easy, free-flowering, big and beautiful, and EARLY.Specie: Austral. From Tasmania. Borderline hardy. Dark green, with delicate white flowersPellie cake. What makes a lemon smell like a lemon?Pelargoniums have over 120 volatile chemicals in the leaves. Hence the huge variety of scents and flavoursBest houseplant pelargonium: Fragrans because of fresh fragrance and height.
