It's finally here — the spring bloom bonanza! 🌷 In this episode, we're sharing five flowers and five vegetables we're most excited about in our early spring gardens. From stunning David Austin roses and clematis to sweet peas, tulips, kale, and the best crunchy radishes you'll ever taste, we walk through what's blooming (and what's almost there) in our Zones 7B gardens. These are the plants we believe in, whether they're tried-and-true or brand-new-to-us varieties. If you're planning your next succession planting or wondering which flowers will make your garden shine, this episode is packed with inspiration and laughs. 🌸 Featured flowers: Bathsheba rose, Clematis Duchess of Edinburgh, peonies Sarah Bernhardt, Karl Rosenfield and Bartzella, Snapdragon Potomac Royal, Artist Viridiflora tulip, Mollie Rillstone, Matcucana, Cupani, Windsor, High Scent, and Nimbus sweet peas, Narcissus Gay Tabor, Lambada Fringed Tulip, perennial phlox, and Vulcan wallflower.  🥬 Veggies we love: Red Russian kale, Dark Side spinach, Marvel of Four Seasons lettuce, French breakfast radish, Watermelon Radish, Nairobi snap peas, asparagus, spring onions, and Arugula (Shannon's still can't find the variety but it is Botanical Interests seed). Subscribe so you never miss a new episode every Wednesday — and let us know what's blooming in your garden right now! 🎧 Listen now and let's go grow, baby.
