22 May 2025 Backyard Farmer . A down to earth low-key informative presentation of our natural environment. . Highly knowledgeable cast of articulate experts on plants, growing conditions, diseases, bugs, and treatments. . Helping viewers with lawn, tree, and garden concerns, problems, and successes. . I suggest viewers relax and enjoy an hour of reality. . Yes, "down to earth" was a pun.

It's frozen right now, but if you are lucky enough to get a tour of the rainforest, you'll see gorgeous plants.

Wonderful are ALL the plants you can see there. Blooms and veggies too, attracts a lot of butterflies. Really helpful to find all the identifying name plates by each one too. No ticket required and always open to receive visitors.

I enjoy and learn from the program each week, but I have been gardening for over fifty years, and have worked at nut sedge for fifteen and more years. I see it encroaching everywhere, and many homeowners are yet unaware of it. Can you build a program of gardeners and plant experts who can work together at awareness and solutions? Bindweed would be another big problem to collaborate on. I have given a low rating to draw attention to my message.
