Listen now
Description
For us Canadians, the holiday season kicks off now... The Growing Season discusses Thanksgiving and its horticultural intersects on this week's episode of the show.  Jack, Lynne and Matt McFarland breezily chat about the history of Thanksgiving and our indigenous people's efforts to not only aid the pilgrims but to affect our fall colour in profound ways.   Are you planting fall bulbs for spring emergence? The McFarlands talk about the proper planting of fall bulbs and the many  scenarios that can effect their spring bloom.  "Flex spaces" in gardens are discussed from a design perspective. How do you store fall bulbs?  How deep do you plant them?  What temperatures should be present to engage your bulb planting switches? Lynne discusses how to keep critters from transplanting your bulbs. Looking to book a consult for your property?  We'd love to help.  CLICK HERE. What is a TGS Tiny Garden? CLICK HERE.
