Here's the description: Shade is more common than bright sunny spots in these parts. Let that NOT be a hinderance to you having a successful vegetable garden. If you have a spot big enough for a pot that gets more than 4 hours of direct sunlight (when the sun shines) then YOU TOO can grow vegetables. No, you can't have tomatoes or cucumbers, but you can have other delicious and nutritious and satisfying vegetables. Find out how by having a little listen. 

So many plants, such little time. Not to worry listeners, we chat with our resident horticulturalist and very talented plant picker Taylor about some easy perennials you can add to your garden and pretty much leave alone. She and Erin talk about a couple plants that love the sun, others that prefer shade and all that will leave you feeling like you are capable of making things beautiful with just a little effort. 

Look quickly because ephemerals are Spring's here today gone tomorrow darlings. They bloom beautifully and briefly and can be a real challenge to grow. On this episode, we talk about how to bring some of these elusive lovelies into your own garden and help them flourish for years to come.
