Quote of the Week
"I prefer winter and fall, when you feel the bone structure of
the landscape - the loneliness of it, the dead feeling of winter. Something waits beneath it, the whole story doesn't show."
...Andrew Wyeth

 Are roses from your garden a challenge when it comes to arranging them? New Jersey rosarian, gardener, historian and raconteur, Stephen Scanniello, will de-mystify the art of flower arranging and also talk about his participation in the ALS Association's special program "Nurturing the Nurturer" in King of Prussia. To learn more about Stephen's world -his books, appearances and background - visit his website at www.stephenscanniello.com.
Sunday, November 7
8-10 PST, 11am-1pm EST
 The seed for Mary Walters and her colleague Chris Hansen's Great Garden Plants in Michigan sprouted from their passion for gardening and wholesale/retail nursery experience. For living alternatives to fences, Mary has some great plant ideas that provide privacy screens and color focal highlights. Additional how-to information, mail order selections and helpful videos, can be found at www.greatgardenplants.com. Bob Reidmuller from Oasis Water Efficient Gardens will talk about a perfect plant for rock gardens and dish gardens that are hardy to zone 5 and bear bright pink flowers in the summer.
 Stay tuned for the second hour because Kate Cromwell and David Painter will be on to share the remarkable story of Stonewall Jackson Elementary's garden begun 15 years ago in Dallas, Texas. It has evolved from a modest garden plot to teach children about the life cycle of plants to a 20,000 square foot urban oasis of vegetables, natives, chickens and greenhouse. Visit www.stonewallgardens.com to learn more about this jewel of a community project. Don't know how to protect your roses from Old Man Winter? Our garden expert Lance Walheim will provide several "insulating" tips. Call Sharon, John, Bryan or our guests with your questions at 1-866-606-TALK (8255).

 When to fall back? For 2010, set your clocks back one hour at 2 AM, Sunday, November 7. Over 70 nations use Daylight Saving Time to take advantage of the longer summer hours by "springing ahead" one hour in spring and "falling back" one hour in autumn.
