Hello Listener,  

Happy New Year! It is hard to believe that we are already in a new year. We are kicking off our third season by sitting down with Extension Educator Ginny Rosenkranz. Like many of you, during the pandemic our acquisition of houseplants increased exponentially. Ginny guides us on caring for all of our botanical beauties. 

Timing: 

• Houseplants at ~ 01:50
• Native Plant of the Month Musclewood, Ironwood (Carpinus caroliniana) at ~ 24:55
• Bug of the Month Ice crawlers or ice bug family Grylloblattidea at ~ 29:05
•  Garden Tips of the Month at ~ 31:50 

We hope you enjoyed this month's episode and will tune in next month for more garden tips.
