GardenDC: The Podcast about Mid-Atlantic Gardening

In this episode, we talk with Susan Pell, Executive Director of the U.S. Botanic Garden, about plants that fight back. The plant profile is on Holiday Cactus (Schlumbergera spp.) and we share what's going on in the garden as well as some upcoming local gardening events and this week's garden tasks in the What's New segment. We close out with the Last Word on 12 Things to Grow in Your Greenhouse from Christy Page of Green Prints.
