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!

It’s St. Patrick’s Day and it’s Spring Clean Up Time. A general rule for garden clean up is to wait as long as you can; so that beneficial insects such as bees, butterflies, and ladybugs stay sheltered. Also how to identify and save any chrysalises you might find. We talk pruning your shrubby plants with woody stems, as well as perennial and annual flowers. We answer questions about winter sowing cause it’s not too late to do that. Don’t toil in moist soil - not only is it too many “oi” words in a row, it’s not good for your garden. Edith and Christy take turns pouting, the Old Woman in a Shoe is back, and meet Jean and George Gnome.
