    The Best Low Light Plants for Dim Spaces

    What plants are great in low-light homes? That’s one of the most common plant questions that I get asked a lot. It’s popular because a lot of us don’t have those floor-to-ceiling windows that we often see on Pinterest and Instagram. The majority of us just have normal, low-light homes. Even my new house in Florida is actually extremely low-light! But of course, we all want our indoor garden to grow well, no matter what our lighting circumstances are. So here’s another Proven Winners episode to teach you how to choose the right low-light plants for your space and all the tips you need to know to make sure you’re taking good care of them.

    Behind the Scenes with a Garden Center Owner

    What makes your local garden center feel so special? Don’t you notice that there’s something magical about them? It’s kinda shocking how little we understand as consumers about all the effort that goes into getting plants to us and onto our windowsills. There is so much that goes on behind the scenes at the Garden Center that we don't know about. That's why I'm committed to having more people on this podcast to peel back the curtain of the horticulture industry and help us better understand how our plants get to us. I'm excited to share my conversation with Jessie Jacobson of Tonkadale Greenhouse in Minnetonka, Minnesota. Jessie is an example of what a passionate multi-generational family business can look like. In this episode, we learn:[04:38] What is the story behind Tonkadale Greenhouse?[08:37] Growing vs selling plants[12:03] How does the business keep up with modern times?[14:01] What are the mission, vision, and core values of Tonkadale?[15:27] Gift peace and joy this season with Wind River Chimes![17:05] Give your houseplants the organic love they deserve with Espoma![20:34] What does Jessie’s day look like as a garden center owner?[23:33] Ordering and planning in gardening[25:08] Why you should always visit an independent garden center[26:26] Seasonal revenue + challenges[30:25] Be a better low-maintenance plant parent with Crescent Garden TrueDrop Self-Watering Planters![32:37] What keeps Jessie motivated?

    How Plants Teach Us to Adapt to Change

    Have you ever felt lost while experiencing change? In fact, I've been thinking a lot about the concept of transplant shock lately, as it has been a beautiful metaphor for what I am personally going through right now after moving 1,500 miles from New York to Florida. It's a plant-life parallel that gave me so much comfort and guidance during this season of discomfort and change, and I have a feeling that it will resonate with many of you. So in this episode, we’re talking about “transplant shock” and the change and the lessons we can learn during challenging times. In this episode, we learn:[02:24] How can we express change in different ways?[02:50] What are the top three stressors for humans?[04:18] Why did I experience transplant shock?[06:50] Wilted plant = transplant shock[07:54] Plant-life parallels and personal reflections[09:51] What is transplant shock?[10:33] What are the symptoms of transplant shock?[10:43] How can a plant recover from transplant shock?[12:21] What does transplant shock look like in humans?[13:36] How do you treat transplant shock in humans?[15:37] Bring more light and positivity to your plants and life with Soltech grow lights![17:03] Start planning your next gardening season with the Tiny Farm Planner by Jill Ragan![18:28] Why you should be patient[20:55] Nutrient of “socialization”[22:00] How to turn transplant shock into growth Mentioned in our conversation:Growing Joy Ep 255: I Moved 80+ Plants Across the Country: Here's What I LearnedNextdoorBumble BFFMeetupMounts Botanical GardenFlorida-Friendly Landscaping™ Program For useful insights on how to deal with change,check out the full show notes and blog here!
