Mid-American Gardener

Mid American Gardener:  Plugs or sod for a troubled yard?

 

This week we discuss how to propagate properly and the group tastes a watermelon radish. Plus, have you ever eaten celery root?

Chuck brings interesting veggies to share, Theresa shows us how to split our Sansevieria and Kent shows off a beautiful rainbow of willow branches to mix into your winter arrangements. Plus the panel answers your calls live.

If you have questions (send photos if you have them!), we’ve got you covered. Send questions to yourgarden@gmail.com, post them on Facebook, or leave us a voicemail at (217) 300-8224. We just might look to include them in a future show or podcast!

Plus, you can now follow us on Instagram!

Late winter, early Spring is prime time pruning season and to discuss this and learn all about the perfect technique we’ve brought in a local expert in forestry and a friend of our show through the University of Illinois Extension office, Ryan Pankau.
