The Everything Garden

Can a native plant garden be maintained without year-round pruning? In this episode, Colleen articulates her front-yard scheme for a super-low-maintenance native garden design for Central Texas, a cumulative idea inspired by past episodes of this very podcast. Her working title is "The Everything Garden." First, we introduce a corrections segment called the "Concession Stand," and Leah wonders what the heat dome has to do with the surprising amount of debris in the road.
