E19 - Pansies and Peas, Violas and Tomatoes, Spring is Coming!
This week on The Gardenangelists, Dee and Carol discuss planting pansies and violas and some of their favorite types of both flowers. In addition, they provide helpful tips for growing peas in the spring garden. Plus TWO bits of dirt. The first dirt is to join the American Horticultural Society. Membership gives you free access to over 300 gardens in the United States. The second dirt is to order grafted tomatoes early and why you would want to plant them in your garden instead of seed grown tomatoes.
