Upside Down Tulips - A Garden Podcast

By: Christy & Edith
  • Summary

  • 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!

  • 120. Summer Garden Potpourri: We're Hot and Killin' It!
    Jul 17 2024

    Our gardens are doing great! So far. If you don’t count the heat, the Japanese beetles… and the murders!

    Life is growing fast and furious in our gardens and we are applying water like we are applying for a job. Edith loves her loveage. Christy is at peace with her peace rose. Edith is plum crazy about her plum tree. Christy is thinks Edith’s peach tree harvest is going to be… peachy keen. :)

    Our summer gardens are a potpourri of marvels, questions and fun tips.

    • To shell or not to shell peas?
    • Is it possible for gardeners to be psychopaths?
    • When should you trim back your tomatoes?
    • Where does the term potpourri come from?
    • How can Windex be a tool in your garden?
    • How to get the most blooms from your geraniums?
    • Why is July 27 an important gardening date?
    • Which mite might help you control bindweed?
    • Why you shouldn’t name plants after people you know.

    If you want some fun Brand New pod plays, we got ‘em. If you want some inspiration, we got it. If you want some moist soil – it’s there. We sure had fun recording this episode – and hope you can join in the laughter, while learning a thing or two. So put on your headphones, head out into your garden and enjoy!
