Lazy gardeners alert!

Looking for a low maintenance and very hardy option for your garden? This is the episode for you.

In this episode of the Mid-American Gardener Podcast, host Victoria Shepherd talks perennial and annual ornamental grasses with Dyke Barkley, Mid-American Gardener panelist and owner of Barkley Farms Nurseries. These grasses are low maintenance and very hardy, so what more could you ask for?

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

As always, thanks for listening!
