Blackberry winter is the name for the cold snap that seems to happen every early spring.  As soon as the blackberries peek out the temperature takes a quick dive.  Felder urges not to plant at the first sign of warm weather, because blackberry winter is usually on the forefront ready to stunt a few of our plants.  During this round of southern gardening questions, Felder spreads his brand of optimism mixed with years of horticultural knowledge.  Then plays a cheesy tune that focuses on a certain demographic.

The Gestalt Gardener | Blackberry Winter

Each week, horticulturalist Felder Rushing shares stories, answers questions and just talks gardening. Of course, you’ll hear a bit of “cheesy music” in every program and you might hear a bad joke or two as well. The Gestalt Gardener is a long-time favorite on MPB Think Radio, due in no small part to Felder’s laid-back, your-neighbors-might-talk-but-so-what approach to gardening.
Email Felder anytime at garden@mpbonline.org and listen Friday mornings at 9 and Saturday mornings at 10 to The Gestalt Gardener on MPB Think Radio. And in the meantime, as Felder says, get out and get dirty. Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.
