If you've been a plant geek for any length of time, odds are you've found yourself poring over a sexy catalog promising live plants by mail. Despite mail-ordering plants as often as I have, I’m still struck by what a dubious prospect it is. ]]> http://www.finegardening.com/item/23037/episode-7-return-to-sender Mon, 30 Apr 2012 05:01:33 -0500 http://www.finegardening.com/item/22806/episode-6-x-and-y-part-i http://www.finegardening.com/item/22806/episode-6-x-and-y-part-i Posted by andrewkeys
"Why don't young people garden?" I can't tell you how often I've been asked that question. In this episode, I talk to Kelly Norris and Amanda Thomsen, two Gen X/Y gardeners and authors, about the "age-old" question of gardening among our generations. ]]> http://www.finegardening.com/item/22806/episode-6-x-and-y-part-i Thu, 22 Mar 2012 08:58:02 -0500 http://www.finegardening.com/item/22441/episode-5-down-to-earth http://www.finegardening.com/item/22441/episode-5-down-to-earth Posted by andrewkeys
Earthworms: how well do you really know them? I'm betting worms have more to do with your above-ground world than you know.

The Christmas tree is a holiday horticultural icon, and in this episode, we give you two slightly skewed tales of the storied evergreen.
