Hi! We are Christy and Edith, backyard gardeners from Colorado. Lately, we have noticed more and more people picking our brains for tips and trouble-shooting about gardening. We think it’s kinda funny, because we’re not experts. We just learned a lot about gardening from the mistakes we made along the way. You always hear about Victory gardens – but what about all the garden failures? Gardening is about learning, experimenting and rolling with the punches. Every week we share our most epic garden failures and our biggest garden lessons. Most gardens are the result of trial and error. To reduce your chance of failure, join us in our gardens. And learn why you should plant your tulips butt side down. Winner of Best New Podcast at 2020 Colorado Podcast Awards!

Tuesday May 18, 2021
“No good in a bed, but fine up against a wall." This is the catalog description of a rose named for a former first lady. Her reaction to it is priceless.
We’ve got the info on how and where to plant, prune, fertilize, water and care for the Queens of the Garden: Roses. Save money and up your rose game with our easy homemade fertilizer suggestions. We tell you about a thousand year old climbing rose that survived a WW2 bombing that destroyed the cathedral on whose walls it grew. Plus: do those Japanese beetle bags that attract and trap those pests work? And in addition to all this great stuff we have eunuchs in tunics, Romans in togas, cheesy dribs and limequats. Something for everyone, really. A whole episode about roses and we never use the word “prick”. Go us.
