We Have You on the List - Plant Lists and How to Use
Them
Welcome to the first Garden Time podcast. Recently we
finished up 17 years of Garden Time TV shows. In this
first podcast we introduce you to Ryan and Judy and they
talk about their backgrounds. They are not just great
people, they have deep histories and educational
credentials in the horticultural industry. They know
their stuff! Then we talk about plant lists. There are
local and national groups that introduce plant lists
every year. Even labeling some plants as ‘plants of the
year’. We will look at a couple of these lists. How
useful are these lists and what should you look out for
when using them to pick plants for your garden.
