On the show today: Olympia covers the day's headlines, including domestic violence offenders increasingly being fined, rather than jailed, for breaching court orders.
Gardening is back for another week, and sees Paul Plant and Olympia discuss the myths of Epsom Salts in gardening. Can it help your plants grow? Can it make fruit sweeter? Paul tells us all about it.
Paul also answers your questions about engaging a Horticulturist to provide a consultation, striking lavender and which animal manure reigns supreme as a fertiliser.
PLUS Paul introduces his plant of the week: the Rice Flower (Ozothamnus diosmifolius), a native to Southern QLD and NSW.

In the second hour; with the Brisbane Festival in full swing, there’s so much to see and do across our city. We hear from artist and weaver Grace Lillian Lee, whose intricate woven pieces you may have seen in art galleries all around Australia. Grace joins Olympia to talk about her weaving style, her upcoming collection with Jean Paul Gaultier and where you can see her works throughout this month.
It’s also the 75th year of the Toowoomba Carnival of Flowers, the longest-running floral event of its kind in Australia. We hear from Toowoomba Mayor Geoff McDonald about their blooming amazing line up for you this spring.
PLUS: We hear from Andrew South of First National By The Bay for a weekly real estate update.
