Merry Christmas Rick, Stacey and Adrianna!
🍊Thank you for annnother great show!🍋
Hurray!!!
Winter solstice today means that from now onwards daylight will be getting longer…I know, it’s not significantly noticeable but just knowing that makes winter more bearable waiting for those spring days
Happy solstice day to everyone 🎉🎉🎉
Two months ago someone gave me a terrible looking 5 foot tall orange tree. Thanks for helpful tips to care for it! It is covered in a million flowers right now. I'm going to hand pollinate some and see what happens.
Thank you and Merry Christmas to all! Thanks for the reminder to fertilize my citrus> I have Meyer Lemon , Pink Lemonade Lemon, a Lime and Calamondin Orange. They Live in my greenhouse all winter where they seem to be the happiest and will be maturing their fruits. My favorite cemetery to visit is Crown Hill in Indianapolis. I do need to explore the Elmwood cemetery in Memphis which is not too far from me as it is one of the south's oldest.
Loved the show as usual! Especially the part about the botanical garden. I would love it if you dedicated an entire show to must see botanical gardens in the U.S. I would love to start visiting them!
Merry Christmas and Happy Chanukah y’all! ❤🎄❤
I have three Lindera Augustifolia after watching a video of Allan Armitage garden. Spectacular
Merry Christmas Happy Holidays and thank you all for doing what you do.
Can I make a suggestion to have a segment on wetland plants/trees and shrubs? I just planted 2 bald cypress and on an online site they’re suggesting a few blue cypress being water tolerant but I’m thinking they may not mean wetland tolerant; would you agree?
I was gifted beautiful 5ft + lemon tree and fiscus tree from a friend who was downsizing. Now I know what I did to kill the lemon 😂
Love your show! Wishing you a Merry Christmas and Happy New Year! Thanks for bringing me joy every Saturday morning.
I absolutely love cemeteries and one of my favorite cemeteries is Graceland cemetery in Chicago on Clark Street. Stacy I know you would absolutely love it there. And Stacy also You must visit the Northwestern Shakespeare Garden. It is a bit of a treasure hidden away on the campus of Northwestern University in downtown Chicago. Although not a citrus, I'm waiting for my medlar tree to arrive in April because I had heard so much about them and they were very hard to acquire and it being hardy to this area, it was quite the find! I love unusual trees and therefore I'll be waiting for mine to arrive in Spring.
I remember Tang! We drank it all the time!
Love your shows!
Merry Christmas, Happy Holidays, Blessed Yule, Rick, Stacy & Adriana !! Could you do an episode on winter sowing as it's that time again? Thanks for another year of wonderful puns, information and & ideas! Looking forward to 2025 episodes! — side note* We want more Plant Panel episodes!!!—
I grew several ‘Flying Dragon’ from seed and can’t wait for them to bulk up. Saw them while on a trip and I was immediately obsessed.
Woah! Had no idea about the rue/citrus relation! Thanks for the education!
Merry Christmas🎄 and Happy New Year!!🥂🍾🎉 to Stacy Rick and Adrianna! Thank you😊 for your kind advice and replies to my comments! I’m looking forward to seeing my newest bulb additions the tiny tulips which I saw at an arboretum and bought from Brecks. They are adorable but I think part of the fritillaria or crocus family not the tulip family and they were costly. I will add those over time if they bloom in spring! ❄️🥰7 a New York
