    #18 - A Beautiful End to a Difficult Summer

    A sunny weekend is in store, finally, one of the wettest on record! Frost is starting to show up in the colder parts of town so it's zero-hour for getting prepared for winter. Get those lawns cut and fertilized, prune your trees and shrubs, we field some questions about moss, mushrooms, huckleberries, and even holly. Have a wonderful winter! Make sure you are subscribed and just maybe we'll sneak in a podcast or two throughout the winter!

    #17 - Head Start on Winter Preparations

    A beautiful, sunny Labor Day weekend is in store - just a perfect weekend to get a head start on preparing things for the long winter. It's time to give your lawn and shrubs a final good feeding so they have some nutrients to carry them into spring. We talk about berries, answer a call on how lime works, a secret ingredient for cooking wild game with - and so much more!

    #16 - Fall Bulbs for Spring Flowers

    We start off talking about all the different types of Hydrangea's there are and which ones respond better to our climate. We answer a question on what would be eating the leaves of your Rhododendrons. And it's time to start thinking about what bulbs you'll want to plant to get some color poking through the snow in the springtime!

    #14 - Pruning, Parasites and Fungi

    In this episode we start off with a caller wondering how to get rid of smelly mushrooms on a tree, and a little later we talk about other fungi and invasive parasites. It's also that time of year to start pruning, cutting back plants like your rhododendrons, other shrubs, and your bleeding hearts (if they have already flowered). We talk a little about berries and of course, more fertilizing!

    After a windy and stormy night, we talk about how to keep infection out of broken or trimmed tree branches.

We also talk a little bit about keeping your perennials safe and standing.
