Black raspberries
Favorite native to eat? Rubus occidentalis - I’ve never managed to bring any in the house, they disappear into my mouth too quickly. Best Native Plant podcast I’ve found yet. Nice guys too!
Excellent podcast for earthlings.
I found this podcast a few months ago and have been bingeing it ever since. As a lifelong plant and wildlife enthusiast, I find this podcast so important. It’s informational, educational and fun. Each episode makes me feel like I’m chatting with good friends (even though they never let me get a word in). I want everyone to listen to this podcast, and help make changes to benefit the planet and all life on it. Keep up the great work Tom and Fran!
Saving the planet one plant at a time!
Wishing I could give this show more than 5 stars I am a weekly listener and find myself more engrossed each episode. I may be in the minority but I enjoy The Buzz episodes just as much as the guest interviews. The show always has some fun or exciting insights and the host present the material so that even the non Latin versed can enjoy. Share it will all your garden buddies! The best part of native plants is that there is a native plant for your garden no matter where you live.
