If you are ready to live a gardening life or already live one this is one podcast you don’t want to miss.
The Gardenangelists: Flowers, Veggies, and All the Best Dirt
A Tribute to Petunias, Weeds, and a Balanced Ecosystem
Dee and Carol talk about some of their favorite petunia varieties, some of which Dee saw in 2015 when she went to the California Spring Trials with the National Garden Bureau Some of the petunias she saw included Night Sky and Supertunia Honey petunias, Supertunia Vista types like Bubblegum and Silverberry, and Sweetunia Fiona Flash plus Crazytunia Moonstruck.
Another great bunch of petunias are the Wave petunias.

And containers. It's fun to plant in containers and Dee and Carol have some tips on what makes good containers and what is the best potting soil.

Finally, all the best dirt. Carol learned all about what's living in her house with her in a new book, Never Home Alone: From Microbes to Millepedes, Camel Crickets, and Honeybees, the Natural History of Where We Live by Rob Dunn (affiliate link) and she and Dee talk about having a balanced ecosystem in your garden.
