Horticulture Day is a decades-old fixture, even surpassing the history of Talk of Iowa.

Immortal grass and other tales from 30+ years of Horticulture Day

Talk of Iowa is a place for Iowans to connect to our shared culture and what it means to live in Iowa. Host Charity Nebbe brings a mix of regular guests and a range of experts to discuss the arts, history, literature and everything else happening in Iowa. Every day brings something new — even if it's in a recurring segment like Talk of Iowa Book Club or comes from a familiar voice on Horticulture Day.
