Featured in this Episode

  • What it takes to keep annuals looking great

     Well tended annuals can look full and lush right into fall, we find out how. We also get an update on what’s going on at the Green Bay Botanical Garden.

  • Are those plants really real?

    If you have to ask, they probably aren’t. We talk with a horticulturist from the National Garden Bureau about what to look for when looking at online photos.

  • Getting the best from your irises

    Irises look wonderful in the garden and they’re fairly easy to grow. We talk to an expert about growing them, making them happy and all the different cultivars that are available.
