In this episode, I introduce a new format that includes answering listener questions in addition to the usual lecture-style content.

First, I discuss important gardening tasks for the week, such as transplanting brassicas, lettuce, and cool-season flowers like snapdragons and pansies. I also emphasize the need for consistent watering despite cooler temperatures.

Next, I address Angela's question about growing cut flowers in partial shade, providing detailed recommendations on suitable perennials and annuals, including oak leaf hydrangeas and dianthus.

Don’t forget to check out our 2026 garden planner, now available for purchase.
