elements just for you to come in this morning. You're

Speaker 1 (01:01):
You're a trooper. I mean it's you. Yeah, yeah, this
is You're a trooper. This is this is two steak bagels.
So what did you Yeah, so what did you think
last week with a big one?
Speaker 3 (01:14):
Oh?
Speaker 1 (01:14):
It was nasty awful yeah, just awful. Yeah. And I ended.
Speaker 2 (01:20):
Up spending the night at the hotel behind the building here,
and I was just watching it through the window and
and wow, it's.
Speaker 1 (01:28):
Just it just didn't stop. It was relentless, it was.
And then the timing just right too. I was surprised
they kept saying when it was going to move in,
and I was going to move out. But boy, when
it came down, it hammered, It was hammered. It was good. Yeah,
So it's going to be here for a while, still
cold for another week.
Speaker 2 (01:46):
Yet Oh my goodness, my my yard and driveway and
street and all the streets have got just piles and
piles of snow. You know, I know, I know, I know,
we talk about this every time. But when this snow melts,
where does it go? Yeah, goes into the river. I
would not be surprised if a lot of it out there.
(02:08):
I wouldn't be surprised if when this finally melts, there's
a big you know, maybe down downriver in Kentucky, a
flood or the going because I don't think Pittsburgh didn't
get hit, not like we did, so they're not going
to get so it's not gonna come our way. It's
going to go downstream, So it's going to go Louisville
(02:31):
maybe maybe get a flood, maybe some of the Kentucky
towns down there by by the little the point of
Indiana one in the Yeah, I mean, watch, I this
isn't just it. I mean with the fire is going
on and in California. I mean that gets the brunt
(02:52):
of the news. No one's talking about the blizzard that
we got eight to ten inches of snow here.
Speaker 1 (02:58):
I saw pictures again, I've watched that every night so far.
With the fires that is, I can't even believe that's happening,
or that it did happen. And you look at all
those just you know, communities just totally gone, no, just apocalyptic.
I mean it's just like a house to house to
house all just gone. Yeah, and then you look at
(03:20):
all the celebrities that live there and all their stuff,
think at all the stuff they had collected, like Billy Crystal,
they lived in that house for thirty years, raised their
family there.
Speaker 2 (03:30):
I mean, you think you're watching an episode of The
Walking Dead and it's now you're watching the news crazy.
Speaker 1 (03:36):
About the about the wildfire. Yeah, it is crazy. Yeah,
how do you rebuild that? I mean, that's just you don't.
I mean, there's no way. Years and years and years.
Speaker 2 (03:47):
It might be decades because in California, from what I understand,
to build a house in California, it takes years to
get all the permits and everything and go through all
the environmental studies. I mean it's gonna be Yeah, you're
talking thousands of homes and every one of those ones,
especially in Palisades, is a million bucks, yeah minimum, at
(04:09):
least a million bucks. Yeah, so that's what just in
that neighborhood, one hundred million dollars.
Speaker 1 (04:16):
People moving away from there, I would imagine. Wow, Yeah,
it's going to be crazy stuff. It's crazy, crazy times.
I saw the picture. Yeah, they were showing pictures like
when people were flying in to La taking pictures from
the air. Yeah, it's just like you that's unreal. And

know whatever stuff down the South. Yeah, yeah, cold there, Yeah,
been crazy, but here's what it is. What it is,
(05:04):

everyone in between, everybody in between. And the Facebook page
(08:11):
is in the Garden with Ron Wilson and the website
Ron Wilson online dot com.
Speaker 2 (08:16):
And this week we have an article about helping the
monarch butterfly. Yeah, you gotta that's that's imperative. You gotta
keep that up.
Speaker 1 (08:27):
Well, the kick career is if you help the monarch,
which they're now thinking about putting on the endangered species list,
you're helping out all the other pollinators too. So it's
unreal what indangered species dangered species? Yeah, you know what,
what what really does fly under the radar no pun
intended are the amount of birds that are on the
(08:49):
endangered species list. I mean, there are hundreds of different
types of birds that are slowly but surely fading away,
and I think they're finally starting to get a little
bit more attention out there too. But it's pretty important.
So yeah, so hopefully that and the monarch butterfly's kind
of been the poster child for pollinators and getting attention
to pollinators instead of just focusing on the bees, even
(09:10):
though they're not really good pollinators, but they are the
poster child. Everybody recognizes them on our butterflies, so yeah,
so yeah, it's pretty scary. So hopefully this will get
more attention to them, and.
Speaker 2 (09:20):
We're going to direct people to Rita's recipe. And it's
her homemade cought syrup, which does not include slim of bits.
Speaker 1 (09:29):
That's uh, that's add to taste. That's the that's the
Joe Strucker. That's the cought syrup and the taste, the taste. Yeah,
you know you can make that it and add it
as you say, her homemade honey lemon cough syrup. I've
had that before, all right, tastes good and it really
you know, there's a lot of people who do that
and it works very well for them. There you go.
Speaker 2 (09:50):
So if you have any issues and you don't want
to get this stuff with all the chemicals.
Speaker 1 (09:55):
In it, and you want to make your own, there
you go and.
Speaker 2 (10:00):
Rita will and Rita will, well, we'll put it on
a spoon for you and she'll drive the trade into
the station.
Speaker 1 (10:09):
Cargoing or did you do that with your girls flying
the airplane around? I don't remember what I did. I
actually don't remember what I do with the girls.
Speaker 2 (10:18):
Mom did the no, no, Mom, just Mom just stuck
the spoon in my mouth, was like here, Joseph, yeah,
quick complaining back in my day, we didn't have this stuff.
We just but and we just suffered through it and
it would spoon, yeah, and wouldn't spoon. Of course, I
(10:40):
had one with my name on it. And the plan
of the week is the silver leaf Linden tree.
Speaker 1 (10:46):
I love that tree. You know what's funny is I've
liked that tree since I first started in this business
because the garden center I started with back when I
was fifteen or sixteen, actually had one of those planet
on the corner of the building. And I absolutely love
that tree. And it's again way under used. It's a
London everybody always goes for the little leaf Lindens. This
one gets a little bit bigger. It's more of a
(11:07):
stately tree, but green on top, silver on the underside,
so when it wind blows, it's absolutely gorgeous. Moderately butter grower.
As far as speed, tough, durable, hardy. I like it.
So it's another whene we're going to add to our
list that you should take another look at if you've
never looked at it before, And that's silver Leaflenden.
Speaker 2 (11:27):
And for our Oregon listeners, I try to figure out
the the scientific name for it, so let's go with
Tillia Tobin Toosa.

years ago.

Speaker 1 (11:53):
I wasn't twenty. I said twenty years ago when you
finally started to actually saying it's been twenty years. About
twenty years. Yeah, but about twenty years ago you started,
we started doing a little bit of the Cup with Joe.
Speaker 2 (12:02):
I'm gonna have to I'm gonna have to find that
reaper one when it's when it's pepper season.

Speaker 1 (16:38):
Good morning, welcome back. You're in the garden. Ron Wilson
again that goel free number eight hundred and eight two
three eight two five five. It's been a very eventful
week this week in our area, uh, southwestern Ohio. We
got uh, that's an understatement, hammered with snowfall last what
was that Sunday, Monday.
Speaker 6 (16:57):
Sunday afternoon into Monday afternoon, Monday afternoon.
Speaker 1 (17:00):
We actually in our area and this is kind of
it's unusual for us. We've seen him years and years ago,
but you know, it averaged anywhere from eight to eleven
inches twelve inches, and when it came down, it came down,
and it was actually I think a lot of folks
really enjoyed it seeing it coming down. We haven't had
snowfall like that in a long time. And I have
(17:21):
to give kudos to the to the to the cruise
snow crews and all. They did a really decent. I thought,
good job, the.
Speaker 6 (17:28):
Best they could under the circumstances.
Speaker 1 (17:30):
Under the circumstances, and they've timed it right, and they
knew what was coming through.
Speaker 6 (17:33):
And but a lot of stuff now today in front
of our building is another story.
Speaker 1 (17:38):
I'm bringing this up because I'm pushing Dan's button this morning,
because I can't.
Speaker 6 (17:42):
Say what I really want to say because I'd have
to dump it.
Speaker 1 (17:44):
I know, I got the dump button right here in
front of me. But we had on top of all this,
it's been very cold this week, so you know, the
snow's been pushed out of the way, piled up, whatever.
You know, the ice melters have worked nicely. Roads have
been actually really really great drive on all week. Extremely
cold temperatures though, so it's been really cold out. And
(18:06):
then yesterday we uh, about three o'clock yesterday afternoon, a
snowstorm came back in. We got about another three to
four inches scattered around the area. And this morning, you know,
it wasn't too bad. I think they've done a pretty
decent job, except for out in front of the studio.
Speaker 6 (18:21):
In Sycamore Township and Cincinnati, Ohio. Kenwood horrible there and
there he hadn't been touched.
Speaker 1 (18:27):
There, you haven't. He wasn't gonna say anything, but I
knew if I kept talking about it, he'd finally.
Speaker 6 (18:31):
I'm tempering my comments. I don't have to hit the
duble button on myself.
Speaker 1 (18:34):
But it was kind of interesting getting off Expressway, which
was really clear, and getting onto a major thoroughfare.
Speaker 6 (18:40):
The eggs or ramps were good Interstate seventy one, two,
seventy fives, even twenty seven going through Butler County, but
not too clear here but not here on Montgomery Road,
he was twenty two.
Speaker 1 (18:52):
Unfortunately, Dan slid past the entrance to I did.
Speaker 6 (18:55):
Slip past the entrance. Had to go down our side
road and our back entrance to get.
Speaker 1 (18:59):
Here in the back way. So I told him, you know,
you can't drive on stuff like that. It's sixty miles
an hour.
Speaker 6 (19:04):
I'm driving sixty five. I was doing about twenty. Oh me,
I'm not crazy enough I go that fast.
Speaker 1 (19:10):
Well, I did the same thing, but I could tell that,
excuse me it to really slow down. And the way
that the snow's piled up, you've only got a certain
amount of width to pull into that entrance area.
Speaker 6 (19:21):
Yeah, I know, all I'm gonna make it. I was
sliding past it anyway, so I kept going, Yeah, turn
on the Hawsbrooks, which of the road next to our building.
Slid a little bit there, but made it into our entrance.
Speaker 1 (19:31):
So you know, I have to give them credible yet.
But again, another nice snowfall last night, and I think for.
Speaker 6 (19:36):
The most of the people out in front of our
building except everybody good besides.
Speaker 1 (19:40):
That, Yeah, and it was good, but I think everybody
around us, seriously, nobody's really been complaining that much, and
I think folks kind of enjoy I like seeing the
snow out there. We haven't seen this much in a
long time. Like I said, Yeah, I left.
Speaker 6 (19:53):
Her Sunday night to go over to the hotel next door,
and it was a little iffy, but all in all,
it wasn't bad. You could tell the day at least tried.
Speaker 1 (20:01):
Yeah. Yeah. So it's been an interesting week, a very
eventful week. And again we got some snow today and
then I think tomorrow we're actually gonna get a buff
freezing at around four to thirty five degrees but chilling
back down again. But it's been pretty cool. We'll seeing
all the snow, but some things we need to do
with all that snowfall. We'll talk about that after the break.
Don't forget coming up at the top of the hour.

about this. Three weeks from tomorrow and this is how
fast this is gonna go. Three weeks from tomorrow is
groundhog Day. Yeah, and when we have groundhog Day, you
(23:04):
know we're already predicting how quick spring is going to
be here. And then two weeks after that.
Speaker 6 (23:09):
And then Ron Rothhouse will come on and give his production.
Speaker 1 (23:12):
Yep, he'll be on to go face up against Punk
Satani Phil and Buckeye Chuck and all the other prognosticators

The hardest working person around here next to Joe Strucker.
Speaker 1 (23:40):
There you have it, So we'll keep you posting on
that as well. But it's gonna fly by. But I
couldn't believe it. Three weeks and we're at Groundhog Day.
By the way, it's on a Sunday this year, and
I think the year that we went was on a Monday,
so we actually drove there on Sunday. I'm telling you,
if the weather's not too bad and you're looking for somebody,
(24:02):
put on your bucket list. I'm still saying you hear
me say this. Every year, put Punk Satni Groundhog day
on your bucket list, you go the day before, get
there so you can enjoy the whole day before. So
we actually went two days before Groundhog Day, so we
got there that evening, stayed in a bed and breakfast,
(24:23):
and then spent the day before. They have all kinds
of activities and things going on, and then Groundhog Day, everybody,
I think it's at four o'clock, Gobbler's Knob opens up
the gates and it's you know, it's not at all
like the movie. Gobbler's Knob is like a mile out
of downtown punk Satni. They walk up this huge hill
(24:43):
and out of country road to Gobbler's Knob and everybody
walks up and goes there. Now there's a limited parking
and somehow I lucked out and got a parking pass
in there, so we were actually able to drive and
park at Gobbler's Knob. But the year we went there
was probably about a foot and a half of snow
the ground, but the roads were really clear at everything
wide open. It was so much fun. We enjoyed the
(25:06):
day before with some good friends of the Serises, and
we went and got like I say, the bed and
breakfast for two nights and went the day before, had
all kinds of things going on in town, and they
have their Groundhog brew and all that with a beer,
and it was just it was a great time. And
then Groundhog Day. And then what's interesting is Groundhog Day.
(25:27):
You go there that you know, seven thirty three, they
pull pill out, they do the whole nine yards and
as soon as it's over, everybody turns around and walks
back down to the to punk Satni and parties the
rest of the day and schools usually if it's a weekday,
the schools are out, everybody's you know, the businesses. It's fun.
(25:48):
It's just a good time. So if you somewhere down
the road, if you ever get an opportunity, and this
would be a good one because it does fall on
a Sunday. And then we were about three and a half.
I think our trip was about three hours or so
to get to Punksatony quick Drive. It was really cool.
What was neat is when we and I know this
(26:08):
has nothing to do with gardening all kind of because
we're predicting the weather, but when we drove from our
area southwestern Ohio over to Pittsburgh and end up to
Punks Atoni. You go through a small mountain and come
out the other side, and when you come out the
other side, there's Pittsburgh. I mean literally, it's like a
TV screen in front of you and you go across
this bridge. It was it was I want to turn
(26:29):
around and go back and do it a second time.
But we had such a great time. But I do
recommend if you can. You know, the weather could be
a little bit chili, but they have big bonfires and
spot of fun. No alcohol, hot chocolate, hot coffee, stuff
like that. But everybody has such a great time. They
pack people in there and they just have so much fun.
(26:51):
It's great. So put it on your put it on
your bucket list. Sometimes punks Atoni Pennsylvania and Buckeye Er
Punksatoni phil And if you're if you can't do that one,
you can go to Marion, Ohio and do Buckeye Chuck.
They still do that in the downtown Marion, so try
that out as well. By the way, before we take
a break here, I do talking about gardening. You know,
we watch it's fun watching all of the trends, the
(27:16):
groups out there that take surveys and do trends, especially
with gardening, looking at all the different generations as we
go along and how the different generations they're gardening, you know,
they're trends and what they do, et cetera, et cetera.
I fall into the baby boomer category. After that, of
(27:36):
course Gen X. Danny falls into the Gen X and
the millennials, and it's been fun watching the Millennials getting
back into gardening. Then Gen Z now starting to get
into gardening. But we have the Alpha generation, which we
haven't talked too much about, twenty thirteen through twenty five,
but guess what, we have a new generation just started
(27:58):
in twenty twenty five, rush through twenty thirty nine. It's
Generation Beta. Yeah, Generation Beta, and of course too early
to make any predictions, but I thought it was pretty
interesting to think about this next group of generations that's
coming up here, the betas, because somebody that has kind
(28:18):
of summarized and said, you know what, this is going
to be a totally different generation. Their formative years will
be marked by greater emphasis on personalization. They're gonna have
AI algorithms, Will Taylor, They're learning, they're shopping their social
interactions in ways that we can only begin to imagine
today they're gonna have wearable health technology, immersive, immersive virtual environments,
(28:45):
you know, the whole nine yards. And I don't know
this next generation, but they're gonna have obstacles as well
that they're going to have to deal with, and that's
climate change and shifting global demographics and who knows what else,
but whatever comes their way. And I this is these
aren't my words, it's the I can't think of the
young lady that wrote this article. She said, the one
(29:05):
thing about it is is that they'll have our plants.
As we plant forward today, planting for the alpha and
the beta and future generations, they'll have our plants to
brighten their lives. And maybe by then, who knows, plants
may op out of their plant pots and plant themselves
in the ground. But anyway, welcome to the Beta generation,
(29:28):
which now kicks in in twenty twenty five. Let's take
a quick break, we come back full line. Rovean for
you eight hundred and eight two three, eight two five five.
As a matter of fact, talking about several groups out
there that do look at at gardening trends, and it's
interesting looking at the trends over the years, and it's
it's been pretty steady and a lot of them have
(29:49):
stuck with us as including container gardening, outdoor living obviously, uh,
the folks at Monrovia, and every week, I think for
the next couple of weeks, I'll share some of these
trends with you and see what you think. But after
the break will come back we'll talk about what the
folks at Monrovia. You've seen that they're pots in the
local independent garden centers, major major grower and supplier of
(30:11):
all kinds of plants for all the garden centers around
the United States and other areas as well. But they
have a little trend and they've got their three top
trends gardening trends for twenty twenty five. Share that with
you after the break and taking your calls at eight

Speaker 1 (32:44):
Fucking Yardening at eight hundred and eight two three eight
two five five. Good morning, I am Ron Wilson, your
personal yard boy, and don't forget our website at Ron
Wilson online dot com. Rita Hikenfelder as a recipe there.
It's homemade cough syrup. Nothing spectacular, it's very easy to make,
but it's a homemade cough syrup. As matter of fact.
(33:04):
She's going to join us at the top of the
hour talking about some of these homemade remedies that you
can make out of simple products to help that cough,
help that sore throat, which we're a lot of us
dealing with this time of the year, so very timely,
so we'll have her on coming up at the top
of the hour. Don't forget. At the cop of the
following hour, our good friend Melinda Myers will join us.
(33:26):
Of course, Melinda nationally known garden writer, garden speaker, gardener,
master gardner, you name it. She has books, go Lord
all nine yards. Always fun having Melinda on. Such a nice,
nice person, but it's always fun having her on as well,
so we appreciate that. Before we went into the break,
I was talking about all the different trends that we
kind of take a look at, and some of you
(33:47):
have to take with a grain of salt, and some
of them are usually pretty good. As matter of fact,
the folks from Garden Media Group, you know, Katie Dubao
and all of them, we usually have them on as well,
and we'll save theirs for last. That's what they spend
the whole year doing that. But and a lot of
the trends that they have in theirs as well kind
(34:08):
of reflect to what I'm seeing in some of these
other trends that have been done by other private organizations.
Monrovia happens to be a major nursery grower, been around
for a long long time, and I'm sure you've seen
their containers in the local garden centers. They're a major
supplier for a lot of garden centers. They grow perennials, trees, shrubs,
(34:28):
evergreens a whole nine yards. They do a very nice
job at it, and they've been doing it, like I say,
for a long time, and they of course have research,
their research firms and all that, because you got to
take a look and see what the trends are, what
people are asking for you buying more of. You know,
what the generations are looking for in their yards and gardens,
of which continue to get a little bit smaller and
(34:50):
smaller all the time. But again they do a lot
of research for their own good as far as planning
the plants that they grow for the future, and of
course shared that with everybody else, especially us in the industry,
so we know what the folks are going to be
looking for. And this year when they came out of
their twenty twenty five Garden Design Trend Report, they said
(35:14):
they're starting to see some trends that they are shifting.
This is one trend. Number one is a trend that
I think we also started seeing happening more and more
last year and now I was continuing to build more
and more. As a matter of fact, I had someone
send me pictures of their front yard after a drought
(35:35):
and it just dried. It was a smaller front yard,
but had a nice block wall or rock wall in
the front steps coming up older neighborhood. But the lawn
looked terrible. Was all browned aw said they were tired
of messing with the lawn. Started doing some research about,
you know, turning the whole lawn into like a meadow,
(35:57):
and they did, and they re landscaped the entire front
yard was like a meadow garden was absolutely gorgeous. And
they did have to get permission from the community, the township,
you know, because some townships don't like you doing things
like that in the front yards, so you have to
take it check out with them. But they did this
(36:18):
and it was gorgeous and so obviously it turned into
a full season color, beautiful plants, texture, pollinators, wildlife, birds,
the whole nine yard nine yards and not dealing with
a lawn and mowing and things like that, which I
thought was absolutely outstanding. They did a great job. Well
(36:39):
guess what trend Number one is the modern meadow And
you know, like they said, folks want there today's gardener
looking to have their gardens to have a more natural look.
And this continues to get stronger and stronger, full censory
experience with color movement, connection to nature as relaxing, beauty
(36:59):
and vite to your garden. And you know, again the
homeowners are and we all say, let me know, this
gardening is good for your mental health. It's good for
you know, your mental well being, is good for you
physically as well, and so they're wanted garden design. It
helps them to feel good and contributes to the larger
life experience and that's what modern meadow designs will help
(37:22):
to provide. And you know this is increasing the landscape beds,
adding more native plants, more perennials, more flowering plants, beautiful grasses,
pollinator friendly plant you know, the whole nine yards. Modern
meadows designs can be beautiful. They're free flowing. They invite
the birds and the bees and us as well to
(37:44):
find joy in the landscape, a much more natural, free
flowing look to the to the landscape. And I think
I agree, and I'm seeing this more and more as
folks are changing those simple landscape beds of simple screen
plantings into larger planting areas, reducing the lawn the actual turf,
(38:07):
and adding more of these pollinator plants, more of these
so perennials and trees and shrubs that help them invite
the wildlife in and give us something from the beginning
of the season to the end of the season and
carry you through the winter as well with interesting bark,
branching textures, evergreens, et cetera, et cetera. And of course
they go through and listen a lot of plants that
(38:27):
you can use cone flowers and all the different grasses
and all trend number two, more bold colors and lush layers,
so that you know, folks now are looking at plants
that when they do come into flower, let's put on
a pretty good show. I mean, we're looking for those
those Panama red cone flowers, those roses that really put
(38:48):
out a strong red or a strong orange or coral
to really add again a lot of you know, bling.
I guess you could say to the landscape, to that
free flowing landscape, you know, using some of the new varietes,
those eto paeonies, which I think are absolutely outstanding hydranges obviously,
all the different hydrangeas things like that that give us
(39:10):
lot more bright, brilliant colors in that meadow design. And
number trend number three that they're saying, which this has
been coming on for a long time and continues to
get stronger and stronger all the time, is to create
a productive space that's just filled with life and plants
that attract the pollinators, and plants that people enjoy being with,
(39:35):
and plants that you can eat, and plants that produce
fruits and berries. And whether it be in the containers
or in the ground, or vertical gardening or hanging baskets,
or whatever you know, abundant garden edible perennials. You know,
all of that hydrange is mixed with blueberries to create
an edible hedge, lots of color with hydrangeas the blueberries,
(39:57):
with the blueberries strawberries. This is a groundcover apples. So
the smaller growing dwarf the colonnades the upright apples doing
things like that in the garden. And you know that
the bushland berry blueberries, the dwarf blueberries are absolutely gorgeous.
They look like boxwood and produce very well for you,
high production. Obviously you got to protect them from the
(40:19):
birds and things like that. But again, combining these plants
together with your landscape plants, your perennials and your flowering
shrubs that you can enjoy colors but yet enjoy the
harvest at the same time. And again, the columnar apples
have been around a long time doing wonderful job, high production,
(40:40):
and you'll find them out your local garden center. Has
been around, like I say, a long time. All the
different the dwarf blueberries and raspberries and the blackberries and
the thornless ones that are out there. Great to incorporate
into these gardens as well, And I have a firm
believer that again, that's that garden of abundance just continues
to grow and grow more and more. You know, growing
(41:03):
what we eat has become very very popular and continues on.
As a matter of fact, I said something last week
about one of the things that I've been doing right
now is researching some of the best varieties of miniature
vegetable plants that are high producers but only get eight
ten twelve feet twelve inches tall, that can be grown
indoors and outdoors, and putting that line together, and I'll
(41:25):
share that with you in a couple of weeks. But
there are so many out there that are available for
you today that it affords anybody, anybody the opportunity to
grow your own fruits and vegetables. Perpetua blueberry gives you
a summer blueberry and a fall blueberry as well. Look
for that one too. I love that one. But anyway,
those are their three trends, and I think they're spot
(41:46):
on when it comes to those particular trends. Eight hundred
eight two three eight two five five to date, And
we go, Dick, good morning, good morning.
Speaker 3 (41:54):
How are you?
Speaker 1 (41:55):
I am great in yourself?
Speaker 3 (41:57):
Oh, we have a lot of snow here, and I'm
telling you I had to use AAA two or three times.
You know, the snow dress were bad, you know.
Speaker 1 (42:06):
Yep, we Sunday and Monday, and then of course they
cleared it out, and then last night snow came back
in again.
Speaker 3 (42:11):
Yeah. I just wondered it didn't look too bad or
the road's.
Speaker 1 (42:15):
Okay, Everything is okay. Don't ask Danny because everything is
na No, because everything was good up until he got
in front of the studios and it wasn't so good
out there. But otherwise I think they've done a pretty
good job getting cleared off.
Speaker 3 (42:27):
So oh, really, how much did you get a lot?
Speaker 1 (42:30):
We got about four inches?
Speaker 3 (42:32):
Yeah, that's what we got.
Speaker 1 (42:33):
You know.
Speaker 3 (42:33):
How about the Buckeyes?
Speaker 1 (42:35):
How about him? Were you excited about that?
Speaker 3 (42:37):
Well? I never got the game down here. That's bad.
Speaker 5 (42:40):
Oh.
Speaker 3 (42:41):
We had a call, you know, I'm talking the boots
up there at six ten and he we were talking
about it. But they're doing pretty good, aren't they They are.
Speaker 1 (42:50):
I'll tell you what they had. They looked good last night.
That last play was unbelievable. But yeah, so now they're
in the National Championship. We're looking forward to it. Hey,
you sound like you feeling better.
Speaker 3 (43:01):
Yeah, I'm doing pretty good. I'm just trying to get out,
you know. Well, I'm hoping today to get out. I
don't want to get stuck anymore.
Speaker 1 (43:08):
Nope, don't want to get stuck. So be safe, Dick.
We'll talk to you next week. Okay, bye bye, all right,

darn good job. So we'll share that with you. Coming

Speaker 4 (43:58):
Yourself gardener and eight hundred eight two three talk. You're
in the garden with Ron Wilson,
Eight hundred eight two three eight two five five. Good morning.
I am Ron Wilson, your personal yard boy, talking about yarding.
I can't believe he's here, but he is. Started off
with a couple of joe It's a Joe struck, our
executive producer. Find out what's going on our website at
Ron Wilson online dot com Facebook page. In the garden
with Ron Wilson, I know what's going on in his
yard and gardens covered with snow.
Speaker 2 (00:52):
Now I hate that so much. What I braved the
elements just for you to come in this morning. You're
in fifteen minutes and then leave.
Speaker 1 (01:01):
You're a trooper. I mean it's you. Yeah, yeah, this
is You're a trooper. This is this is two steak bagels.
So what did you Yeah, so what did you think
last week with a big one?
Speaker 3 (01:14):
Oh?
Speaker 1 (01:14):
It was nasty awful yeah, just awful. Yeah. And I ended.
Speaker 2 (01:20):
Up spending the night at the hotel behind the building here,
and I was just watching it through the window and
and wow, it's.
Speaker 1 (01:28):
Just it just didn't stop. It was relentless, it was.
And then the timing just right too. I was surprised
they kept saying when it was going to move in,
and I was going to move out. But boy, when
it came down, it hammered, It was hammered. It was good. Yeah,
So it's going to be here for a while, still
cold for another week.
Speaker 2 (01:46):
Yet Oh my goodness, my my yard and driveway and
street and all the streets have got just piles and
piles of snow. You know, I know, I know, I know,
we talk about this every time. But when this snow melts,
where does it go? Yeah, goes into the river. I
would not be surprised if a lot of it out there.
(02:08):
I wouldn't be surprised if when this finally melts, there's
a big you know, maybe down downriver in Kentucky, a
flood or the going because I don't think Pittsburgh didn't
get hit, not like we did, so they're not going
to get so it's not gonna come our way. It's
going to go downstream, So it's going to go Louisville
(02:31):
maybe maybe get a flood, maybe some of the Kentucky
towns down there by by the little the point of
Indiana one in the Yeah, I mean, watch, I this
isn't just it. I mean with the fire is going
on and in California. I mean that gets the brunt
(02:52):
of the news. No one's talking about the blizzard that
we got eight to ten inches of snow here.
Speaker 1 (02:58):
I saw pictures again, I've watched that every night so far.
With the fires that is, I can't even believe that's happening,
or that it did happen. And you look at all
those just you know, communities just totally gone, no, just apocalyptic.
I mean it's just like a house to house to
house all just gone. Yeah, and then you look at
(03:20):
all the celebrities that live there and all their stuff,
think at all the stuff they had collected, like Billy Crystal,
they lived in that house for thirty years, raised their
family there.
Speaker 2 (03:30):
I mean, you think you're watching an episode of The
Walking Dead and it's now you're watching the news crazy.
Speaker 1 (03:36):
About the about the wildfire. Yeah, it is crazy. Yeah,
how do you rebuild that? I mean, that's just you don't.
I mean, there's no way. Years and years and years.
Speaker 2 (03:47):
It might be decades because in California, from what I understand,
to build a house in California, it takes years to
get all the permits and everything and go through all
the environmental studies. I mean it's gonna be Yeah, you're
talking thousands of homes and every one of those ones,
especially in Palisades, is a million bucks, yeah minimum, at
(04:09):
least a million bucks. Yeah, so that's what just in
that neighborhood, one hundred million dollars.
Speaker 1 (04:16):
People moving away from there, I would imagine. Wow, Yeah,
it's going to be crazy stuff. It's crazy, crazy times.
I saw the picture. Yeah, they were showing pictures like
when people were flying in to La taking pictures from
the air. Yeah, it's just like you that's unreal. And
then the pictures from the helicopters, uh, Thursday afternoon and
(04:36):
yesterday Friday, and it was just where he gets cleared
out where you can see all that stuff, and it's
just unreal. Yeah.
Speaker 2 (04:44):
So yeah, it's you pray for those people out there,
pray for the people that got snowed on. Still praying
for the people in North Carolina and oh yeah they're
still dealing with all that too, with that and you
know whatever stuff down the South. Yeah, yeah, cold there, Yeah,
been crazy, but here's what it is. What it is,
(05:04):
just have to deal with it. There's nothing you can
do to stop the weather, that's for sure. So you
just kind of got to be prepared.
Speaker 1 (05:10):
That's it.
Speaker 2 (05:11):
Got to listen to listen to the guy on after you.
He's the guy that figured how to fix that, figure
out how to fix fix it again? Be ready for stuff?

all kinds of stuff this morning. So those are our
two guests, awesome, plus you and Danny and Gary Sullivan,
everyone in between, everybody in between. And the Facebook page
(08:11):
is in the Garden with Ron Wilson and the website
Ron Wilson online dot com.
Speaker 2 (08:16):
And this week we have an article about helping the
monarch butterfly. Yeah, you gotta that's that's imperative. You gotta
keep that up.
Speaker 1 (08:27):
Well, the kick career is if you help the monarch,
which they're now thinking about putting on the endangered species list,
you're helping out all the other pollinators too. So it's
unreal what indangered species dangered species? Yeah, you know what,
what what really does fly under the radar no pun
intended are the amount of birds that are on the
(08:49):
endangered species list. I mean, there are hundreds of different
types of birds that are slowly but surely fading away,
and I think they're finally starting to get a little
bit more attention out there too. But it's pretty important.
So yeah, so hopefully that and the monarch butterfly's kind
of been the poster child for pollinators and getting attention
to pollinators instead of just focusing on the bees, even
(09:10):
though they're not really good pollinators, but they are the
poster child. Everybody recognizes them on our butterflies, so yeah,
so yeah, it's pretty scary. So hopefully this will get
more attention to them, and.
Speaker 2 (09:20):
We're going to direct people to Rita's recipe. And it's
her homemade cought syrup, which does not include slim of bits.
Speaker 1 (09:29):
That's uh, that's add to taste. That's the that's the
Joe Strucker. That's the cought syrup and the taste, the taste. Yeah,
you know you can make that it and add it
as you say, her homemade honey lemon cough syrup. I've
had that before, all right, tastes good and it really
you know, there's a lot of people who do that
and it works very well for them. There you go.
Speaker 2 (09:50):
So if you have any issues and you don't want
to get this stuff with all the chemicals.

We just but and we just suffered through it and
it would spoon, yeah, and wouldn't spoon. Of course, I
(10:40):
had one with my name on it. And the plan
of the week is the silver leaf Linden tree.
Speaker 1 (10:46):
I love that tree. You know what's funny is I've
liked that tree since I first started in this business
because the garden center I started with back when I
was fifteen or sixteen, actually had one of those planet
on the corner of the building. And I absolutely love
that tree. And it's again way under used. It's a
London everybody always goes for the little leaf Lindens. This
one gets a little bit bigger. It's more of a
(11:07):
stately tree, but green on top, silver on the underside,
so when it wind blows, it's absolutely gorgeous. Moderately butter grower.
As far as speed, tough, durable, hardy. I like it.
So it's another whene we're going to add to our
list that you should take another look at if you've
never looked at it before, And that's silver Leaflenden.
Speaker 2 (11:27):
And for our Oregon listeners, I try to figure out
the the scientific name for it, so let's go with
Tillia Tobin Toosa.
Speaker 1 (11:37):

years ago.
Speaker 2 (11:48):
Yeah, gosh, no, was it twenty It wasn't twenty years ago.
Speaker 1 (11:53):
I wasn't twenty. I said twenty years ago when you
finally started to actually saying it's been twenty years. About
twenty years. Yeah, but about twenty years ago you started,
we started doing a little bit of the Cup with Joe.
Speaker 2 (12:02):

reaper one when it's when it's pepper season.

Speaker 1 (16:38):
Good morning, welcome back. You're in the garden. Ron Wilson
again that goel free number eight hundred and eight two
three eight two five five. It's been a very eventful
week this week in our area, uh, southwestern Ohio. We
got uh, that's an understatement, hammered with snowfall last what
was that Sunday, Monday.
Speaker 6 (16:57):
Sunday afternoon into Monday afternoon, Monday afternoon.
Speaker 1 (17:00):
We actually in our area and this is kind of
it's unusual for us. We've seen him years and years ago,
but you know, it averaged anywhere from eight to eleven
inches twelve inches, and when it came down, it came down,
and it was actually I think a lot of folks
really enjoyed it seeing it coming down. We haven't had
snowfall like that in a long time. And I have
(17:21):
to give kudos to the to the to the cruise
snow crews and all. They did a really decent. I thought,
good job, the.
Speaker 6 (17:28):
Best they could under the circumstances.
Speaker 1 (17:30):
Under the circumstances, and they've timed it right, and they
knew what was coming through.
Speaker 6 (17:33):
And but a lot of stuff now today in front
of our building is another story.
Speaker 1 (17:38):
I'm bringing this up because I'm pushing Dan's button this morning,
because I can't.
Speaker 6 (17:42):
Say what I really want to say because I'd have
to dump it.
Speaker 1 (17:44):
I know, I got the dump button right here in
front of me. But we had on top of all this,
it's been very cold this week, so you know, the
snow's been pushed out of the way, piled up, whatever.
You know, the ice melters have worked nicely. Roads have
been actually really really great drive on all week. Extremely
cold temperatures though, so it's been really cold out. And
(18:06):
then yesterday we uh, about three o'clock yesterday afternoon, a
snowstorm came back in. We got about another three to
four inches scattered around the area. And this morning, you know,
it wasn't too bad. I think they've done a pretty
decent job, except for out in front of the studio.
Speaker 6 (18:21):
In Sycamore Township and Cincinnati, Ohio. Kenwood horrible there and
there he hadn't been touched.
Speaker 1 (18:27):
There, you haven't. He wasn't gonna say anything, but I
knew if I kept talking about it, he'd finally.
Speaker 6 (18:31):
I'm tempering my comments. I don't have to hit the
duble button on myself.
Speaker 1 (18:34):
But it was kind of interesting getting off Expressway, which
was really clear, and getting onto a major thoroughfare.
Speaker 6 (18:40):
The eggs or ramps were good Interstate seventy one, two,
seventy fives, even twenty seven going through Butler County, but
not too clear here but not here on Montgomery Road,
he was twenty two.
Speaker 1 (18:52):
Unfortunately, Dan slid past the entrance to I did.
Speaker 6 (18:55):
Slip past the entrance. Had to go down our side
road and our back entrance to get.
Speaker 1 (18:59):
Here in the back way. So I told him, you know,
you can't drive on stuff like that. It's sixty miles
an hour.
Speaker 6 (19:04):
I'm driving sixty five. I was doing about twenty. Oh me,
I'm not crazy enough I go that fast.
Speaker 1 (19:10):
Well, I did the same thing, but I could tell that,
excuse me it to really slow down. And the way
that the snow's piled up, you've only got a certain
amount of width to pull into that entrance area.
Speaker 6 (19:21):
Yeah, I know, all I'm gonna make it. I was
sliding past it anyway, so I kept going, Yeah, turn
on the Hawsbrooks, which of the road next to our building.
Slid a little bit there, but made it into our entrance.
Speaker 1 (19:31):
So you know, I have to give them credible yet.
But again, another nice snowfall last night, and I think for.
Speaker 6 (19:36):
The most of the people out in front of our
building except everybody good besides.
Speaker 1 (19:40):
That, Yeah, and it was good, but I think everybody
around us, seriously, nobody's really been complaining that much, and
I think folks kind of enjoy I like seeing the
snow out there. We haven't seen this much in a
long time. Like I said, Yeah, I left.
Speaker 6 (19:53):
Her Sunday night to go over to the hotel next door,
and it was a little iffy, but all in all,
it wasn't bad. You could tell the day at least tried.
Speaker 1 (20:01):
Yeah. Yeah. So it's been an interesting week, a very
eventful week. And again we got some snow today and
then I think tomorrow we're actually gonna get a buff
freezing at around four to thirty five degrees but chilling
back down again. But it's been pretty cool. We'll seeing
all the snow, but some things we need to do
with all that snowfall. We'll talk about that after the break.
Don't forget coming up at the top of the hour.
(20:22):

Speaker 1 (22:41):
Welcome back. You're in the garden with Ron Wilson again
that toll free number eight hundred eight two three eight
two five five talking about yardening. As we cruise into
the twenty twenty five season, just think about this. Think
about this. Three weeks from tomorrow and this is how
fast this is gonna go. Three weeks from tomorrow is
groundhog Day. Yeah, and when we have groundhog Day, you
(23:04):
know we're already predicting how quick spring is going to
be here. And then two weeks after that.
Speaker 6 (23:09):
And then Ron Rothhouse will come on and give his production.
Speaker 1 (23:12):
Yep, he'll be on to go face up against Punk
Satani Phil and Buckeye Chuck and all the other prognosticators
out there. And then you know, two weeks after that,
it's Valentine's Day, and then two weeks after that we're
in the first of March, and.
Speaker 6 (23:25):
Then two weeks after that it's my birthday.
Speaker 1 (23:27):
And then two weeks after that, and we will keep
you posted where to melt the checks and the gift
cards to the Durango Kid, Danny Gleeson here at the
studios two weeks.
Speaker 6 (23:36):
The hardest working person around here next to Joe Strucker.
Speaker 1 (23:40):
There you have it, So we'll keep you posting on
that as well. But it's gonna fly by. But I
couldn't believe it. Three weeks and we're at Groundhog Day.
By the way, it's on a Sunday this year, and
I think the year that we went was on a Monday,
so we actually drove there on Sunday. I'm telling you,
if the weather's not too bad and you're looking for somebody,
(24:02):
put on your bucket list. I'm still saying you hear
me say this. Every year, put Punk Satni Groundhog day
on your bucket list, you go the day before, get
there so you can enjoy the whole day before. So
we actually went two days before Groundhog Day, so we
got there that evening, stayed in a bed and breakfast,
(24:23):
and then spent the day before. They have all kinds
of activities and things going on, and then Groundhog Day, everybody,
I think it's at four o'clock, Gobbler's Knob opens up
the gates and it's you know, it's not at all
like the movie. Gobbler's Knob is like a mile out
of downtown punk Satni. They walk up this huge hill
(24:43):
and out of country road to Gobbler's Knob and everybody
walks up and goes there. Now there's a limited parking
and somehow I lucked out and got a parking pass
in there, so we were actually able to drive and
park at Gobbler's Knob. But the year we went there
was probably about a foot and a half of snow
the ground, but the roads were really clear at everything
wide open. It was so much fun. We enjoyed the
(25:06):
day before with some good friends of the Serises, and
we went and got like I say, the bed and
breakfast for two nights and went the day before, had
all kinds of things going on in town, and they
have their Groundhog brew and all that with a beer,
and it was just it was a great time. And
then Groundhog Day. And then what's interesting is Groundhog Day.
(25:27):
You go there that you know, seven thirty three, they
pull pill out, they do the whole nine yards and
as soon as it's over, everybody turns around and walks
back down to the to punk Satni and parties the
rest of the day and schools usually if it's a weekday,
the schools are out, everybody's you know, the businesses. It's fun.
(25:48):
It's just a good time. So if you somewhere down
the road, if you ever get an opportunity, and this
would be a good one because it does fall on
a Sunday. And then we were about three and a half.
I think our trip was about three hours or so
to get to Punksatony quick Drive. It was really cool.
What was neat is when we and I know this
(26:08):
has nothing to do with gardening all kind of because
we're predicting the weather, but when we drove from our
area southwestern Ohio over to Pittsburgh and end up to
Punks Atoni. You go through a small mountain and come
out the other side, and when you come out the
other side, there's Pittsburgh. I mean literally, it's like a
TV screen in front of you and you go across
this bridge. It was it was I want to turn
(26:29):
around and go back and do it a second time.
But we had such a great time. But I do
recommend if you can. You know, the weather could be
a little bit chili, but they have big bonfires and
spot of fun. No alcohol, hot chocolate, hot coffee, stuff
like that. But everybody has such a great time. They
pack people in there and they just have so much fun.
(26:51):
It's great. So put it on your put it on
your bucket list. Sometimes punks Atoni Pennsylvania and Buckeye Er
Punksatoni phil And if you're if you can't do that one,
you can go to Marion, Ohio and do Buckeye Chuck.
They still do that in the downtown Marion, so try
that out as well. By the way, before we take
a break here, I do talking about gardening. You know,
we watch it's fun watching all of the trends, the
(27:16):
groups out there that take surveys and do trends, especially
with gardening, looking at all the different generations as we
go along and how the different generations they're gardening, you know,
they're trends and what they do, et cetera, et cetera.
I fall into the baby boomer category. After that, of
(27:36):
course Gen X. Danny falls into the Gen X and
the millennials, and it's been fun watching the Millennials getting
back into gardening. Then Gen Z now starting to get
into gardening. But we have the Alpha generation, which we
haven't talked too much about, twenty thirteen through twenty five,
but guess what, we have a new generation just started
(27:58):
in twenty twenty five, rush through twenty thirty nine. It's
Generation Beta. Yeah, Generation Beta, and of course too early
to make any predictions, but I thought it was pretty
interesting to think about this next group of generations that's
coming up here, the betas, because somebody that has kind
(28:18):
of summarized and said, you know what, this is going
to be a totally different generation. Their formative years will
be marked by greater emphasis on personalization. They're gonna have
AI algorithms, Will Taylor, They're learning, they're shopping their social
interactions in ways that we can only begin to imagine
today they're gonna have wearable health technology, immersive, immersive virtual environments,
(28:45):
you know, the whole nine yards. And I don't know
this next generation, but they're gonna have obstacles as well
that they're going to have to deal with, and that's
climate change and shifting global demographics and who knows what else,
but whatever comes their way. And I this is these
aren't my words, it's the I can't think of the
young lady that wrote this article. She said, the one
(29:05):
thing about it is is that they'll have our plants.
As we plant forward today, planting for the alpha and
the beta and future generations, they'll have our plants to
brighten their lives. And maybe by then, who knows, plants
may op out of their plant pots and plant themselves
in the ground. But anyway, welcome to the Beta generation,
(29:28):
which now kicks in in twenty twenty five. Let's take
a quick break, we come back full line. Rovean for
you eight hundred and eight two three, eight two five five.
As a matter of fact, talking about several groups out
there that do look at at gardening trends, and it's
interesting looking at the trends over the years, and it's
it's been pretty steady and a lot of them have
(29:49):
stuck with us as including container gardening, outdoor living obviously, uh,
the folks at Monrovia, and every week, I think for
the next couple of weeks, I'll share some of these
trends with you and see what you think. But after
the break will come back we'll talk about what the
folks at Monrovia. You've seen that they're pots in the
local independent garden centers, major major grower and supplier of
(30:11):
all kinds of plants for all the garden centers around
the United States and other areas as well. But they
have a little trend and they've got their three top
trends gardening trends for twenty twenty five. Share that with
you after the break and taking your calls at eight

Fucking Yardening at eight hundred and eight two three eight
two five five. Good morning, I am Ron Wilson, your
personal yard boy, and don't forget our website at Ron
Wilson online dot com. Rita Hikenfelder as a recipe there.
It's homemade cough syrup. Nothing spectacular, it's very easy to make,
but it's a homemade cough syrup. As matter of fact.
(33:04):
She's going to join us at the top of the
hour talking about some of these homemade remedies that you
can make out of simple products to help that cough,
help that sore throat, which we're a lot of us
dealing with this time of the year, so very timely,
so we'll have her on coming up at the top
of the hour. Don't forget. At the cop of the
following hour, our good friend Melinda Myers will join us.
(33:26):
Of course, Melinda nationally known garden writer, garden speaker, gardener,
master gardner, you name it. She has books, go Lord
all nine yards. Always fun having Melinda on. Such a nice,
nice person, but it's always fun having her on as well,
so we appreciate that. Before we went into the break,
I was talking about all the different trends that we
kind of take a look at, and some of you
(33:47):
have to take with a grain of salt, and some
of them are usually pretty good. As matter of fact,
the folks from Garden Media Group, you know, Katie Dubao
and all of them, we usually have them on as well,
and we'll save theirs for last. That's what they spend
the whole year doing that. But and a lot of
the trends that they have in theirs as well kind
(34:08):
of reflect to what I'm seeing in some of these
other trends that have been done by other private organizations.
Monrovia happens to be a major nursery grower, been around
for a long long time, and I'm sure you've seen
their containers in the local garden centers. They're a major
supplier for a lot of garden centers. They grow perennials, trees, shrubs,
(34:28):
evergreens a whole nine yards. They do a very nice
job at it, and they've been doing it, like I say,
for a long time, and they of course have research,
their research firms and all that, because you got to
take a look and see what the trends are, what
people are asking for you buying more of. You know,
what the generations are looking for in their yards and gardens,
of which continue to get a little bit smaller and
(34:50):
smaller all the time. But again they do a lot
of research for their own good as far as planning
the plants that they grow for the future, and of
course shared that with everybody else, especially us in the industry,
so we know what the folks are going to be
looking for. And this year when they came out of
their twenty twenty five Garden Design Trend Report, they said
(35:14):
they're starting to see some trends that they are shifting.
This is one trend. Number one is a trend that
I think we also started seeing happening more and more
last year and now I was continuing to build more
and more. As a matter of fact, I had someone
send me pictures of their front yard after a drought
(35:35):
and it just dried. It was a smaller front yard,
but had a nice block wall or rock wall in
the front steps coming up older neighborhood. But the lawn
looked terrible. Was all browned aw said they were tired
of messing with the lawn. Started doing some research about,
you know, turning the whole lawn into like a meadow,
(35:57):
and they did, and they re landscaped the entire front
yard was like a meadow garden was absolutely gorgeous. And
they did have to get permission from the community, the township,
you know, because some townships don't like you doing things
like that in the front yards, so you have to
take it check out with them. But they did this
(36:18):
and it was gorgeous and so obviously it turned into
a full season color, beautiful plants, texture, pollinators, wildlife, birds,
the whole nine yard nine yards and not dealing with
a lawn and mowing and things like that, which I
thought was absolutely outstanding. They did a great job. Well
(36:39):
guess what trend Number one is the modern meadow And
you know, like they said, folks want there today's gardener
looking to have their gardens to have a more natural look.
And this continues to get stronger and stronger, full censory
experience with color movement, connection to nature as relaxing, beauty
(36:59):
and vite to your garden. And you know, again the
homeowners are and we all say, let me know, this
gardening is good for your mental health. It's good for
you know, your mental well being, is good for you
physically as well, and so they're wanted garden design. It
helps them to feel good and contributes to the larger
life experience and that's what modern meadow designs will help
(37:22):
to provide. And you know this is increasing the landscape beds,
adding more native plants, more perennials, more flowering plants, beautiful grasses,
pollinator friendly plant you know, the whole nine yards. Modern
meadows designs can be beautiful. They're free flowing. They invite
the birds and the bees and us as well to
(37:44):
find joy in the landscape, a much more natural, free
flowing look to the to the landscape. And I think
I agree, and I'm seeing this more and more as
folks are changing those simple landscape beds of simple screen
plantings into larger planting areas, reducing the lawn the actual turf,
(38:07):
and adding more of these pollinator plants, more of these
so perennials and trees and shrubs that help them invite
the wildlife in and give us something from the beginning
of the season to the end of the season and
carry you through the winter as well with interesting bark,
branching textures, evergreens, et cetera, et cetera. And of course
they go through and listen a lot of plants that
(38:27):
you can use cone flowers and all the different grasses
and all trend number two, more bold colors and lush layers,
so that you know, folks now are looking at plants
that when they do come into flower, let's put on
a pretty good show. I mean, we're looking for those
those Panama red cone flowers, those roses that really put
(38:48):
out a strong red or a strong orange or coral
to really add again a lot of you know, bling.
I guess you could say to the landscape, to that
free flowing landscape, you know, using some of the new varietes,
those eto paeonies, which I think are absolutely outstanding hydranges obviously,
all the different hydrangeas things like that that give us
(39:10):
lot more bright, brilliant colors in that meadow design. And
number trend number three that they're saying, which this has
been coming on for a long time and continues to
get stronger and stronger all the time, is to create
a productive space that's just filled with life and plants
that attract the pollinators, and plants that people enjoy being with,
(39:35):
and plants that you can eat, and plants that produce
fruits and berries. And whether it be in the containers
or in the ground, or vertical gardening or hanging baskets,
or whatever you know, abundant garden edible perennials. You know,
all of that hydrange is mixed with blueberries to create
an edible hedge, lots of color with hydrangeas the blueberries,
(39:57):
with the blueberries strawberries. This is a groundcover apples. So
the smaller growing dwarf the colonnades the upright apples doing
things like that in the garden. And you know that
the bushland berry blueberries, the dwarf blueberries are absolutely gorgeous.
They look like boxwood and produce very well for you,
high production. Obviously you got to protect them from the
(40:19):
birds and things like that. But again, combining these plants
together with your landscape plants, your perennials and your flowering
shrubs that you can enjoy colors but yet enjoy the
harvest at the same time. And again, the columnar apples
have been around a long time doing wonderful job, high production,
(40:40):
and you'll find them out your local garden center. Has
been around, like I say, a long time. All the
different the dwarf blueberries and raspberries and the blackberries and
the thornless ones that are out there. Great to incorporate
into these gardens as well, And I have a firm
believer that again, that's that garden of abundance just continues
to grow and grow more and more. You know, growing
(41:03):
what we eat has become very very popular and continues on.
As a matter of fact, I said something last week
about one of the things that I've been doing right
now is researching some of the best varieties of miniature
vegetable plants that are high producers but only get eight
ten twelve feet twelve inches tall, that can be grown
indoors and outdoors, and putting that line together, and I'll
(41:25):
share that with you in a couple of weeks. But
there are so many out there that are available for
you today that it affords anybody, anybody the opportunity to
grow your own fruits and vegetables. Perpetua blueberry gives you
a summer blueberry and a fall blueberry as well. Look
for that one too. I love that one. But anyway,
those are their three trends, and I think they're spot
(41:46):
on when it comes to those particular trends. Eight hundred
eight two three eight two five five to date, And
we go, Dick, good morning, good morning.

the road's.
Speaker 1 (42:15):
Okay, Everything is okay. Don't ask Danny because everything is
na No, because everything was good up until he got
in front of the studios and it wasn't so good
out there. But otherwise I think they've done a pretty
good job getting cleared off.
Speaker 3 (42:27):
So oh, really, how much did you get a lot?
Speaker 1 (42:30):

Speaker 3 (42:32):
