    Episode 10 — Halloween for All Seasons

    On Episode 10 of the Garden Revival BBQ, IG, SpaceButler, Zappy and Passi are back together, talking about spooky, goth and phantasmagoric plants and garden decor that wouldn’t be out of place any time of year. We fantasize about designing an Addams Family garden and make you pray smellavision never comes to fruition. From ground covers to trees and houseplants, from beautiful to vile — there’s something for everyone to adore or eschew. We wrap up the episode with answers to the audience’s big burning questions and ponder our own questions, like, does durian taste how amorphophallus smells?

    Episode 9 — Roses Demystified with Jason Croutch

    On Episode 9 of the Garden Revival BBQ, IG talks to Jason Croutch from Fraser Valley Rose Farm. She tries to ask him everything anyone ever wanted to know about roses but eventually has to let him go. Jason talks about the history of rose breeding, the subjectivity of rose classification, the best of old garden roses and standouts in modern rose breeding. Then, Jason shares his rose care schedule and answers the audience’s big burning questions about zone pushing, best David Austins for cut flowers, where to buy roses online, rose varieties for lazy gardeners and more. No one stumps him but one question is asked that Jason’s never heard before.

    Episode 7, Part 1 — Verticality in Small Gardens with Brad Johnson of Garden Evolution

    In part one of episode 7 of the Garden Revival BBQ, IG, Passi and SpaceButler welcome Coneflower King Brad Johnson of Garden Evolution. We learn about the gateway plant that got Brad into gardening and chat about the changes happening in his garden now. Then, we discuss the importance of vertical elements in small gardens when the footprint is limited but vertical space is plentiful. We talk about small and fastigiate trees, shrubs and herbaceous plants that can fill the void between the ground and the sky. We find out that Brad doesn’t like naked tree legs, that everyone loves yew and exactly how many varieties of echinacea are in Brad’s garden.

    Episode 6, Part 1 — Foliage Fiesta

    In part 1 of episode 6 of the Garden Revival BBQ, Passi, Zappy and IG geek out over some favorite foliage plants and some real stinkers like a tomato that smells like burning rubber. Zappy talks about edible Jurassic Park plants and pops outside to taste her groundcover. IG gushes about a foliage plant that comes in more “flavors” than an iMac G3 and realizes that she has no future in standup as all her jokes bomb. We reminisce about our stinging nettle adventures, ooh and ahh over foliage that looks like a taffeta prom dress. There’s a misunderstanding about cow tipping and Passi tries to hijack the episode with begonia talk.

    Episode 5

    In episode 5 of the Garden Revival BBQ, Zappy, Passi, IG and SpaceButler discuss dumpster diving for orchids and goat moats. Passi insists variegation is just like a skin mole. IG admits to horrendous seed storage methods and Zappy one-ups her with even more egregious seed abuse practices. Passi talks about the weird things plants do that could inspire some scary sci-fi movies and shares the delightfully Canadian food habits from back in his college days. Then we all reveal our desert island plant picks, the audience chimes in and SpaceButler wins with the best answer, even though it’s not a contest.
