The Gardenangelists: Flowers, Veggies, and All the Best Dirt

I was first introduced to Dee when I bought her book to learn more about gardening. After reading the book, I looked her up and learned about this podcast, and now this is one of my favorite podcasts. I love listening to Dee and Carol’s banter (they sound genuine and like people I want to be good friends with). I also love hearing about their rabbit holes and all their wisdom. It’s a breath of fresh air that I look forward to every week.

I wasn’t going to tune in because I garden on what seems like a different planet. Summer rain? What’s that? Heat waves and hard freezes— huh? And weeds and insect pests I have never heard of abound in their worlds. But it doesn’t matter, this podcast has become a must-listen for me in my maritime Zone 8b. The quotes, the book recommendations, even the rabbit holes all make it worthwhile. I have learned to perk up my ears when they sadly say “it doesn’t like our heat” or “won’t survive our winters.” And I certainly have to time-shift literally everything related to planting or blooming or harvesting. I recommend giving it a try no matter what climate you garden in.

This is such a fun, informed podcast. These two ladies clearly have a friendship and I’ve been listening so long, it feels like they are my friend too! They always have great information to share and I like the format where they talk flowers and veggies as well as books! Keep it up ladies!

Gardenangelists is such a great podcast! Who knew two friends talking about gardens could be so informative and informative. From the carefully curated topics and the thoughtful, wide-ranging quotes to the improvised chat, they share their vast experiences and knowledge in an engaging, friendly way. I’ve learned so much and now I wait impatiently for the next episode to drop on Wednesday. Makes my commute and walks so much more enjoyable. Bravo!
