  • Fluff, not gardening knowledge

    Ashley has turned Atlanta’s garden podcast into largely a fluffy waste of time. There is very little gardening content. I used to listen to nearly every weekend before she took over, but now have found other garden shows to listen to.

Great garden calls 7/11/26 Hour 3
Q: What is the best approach to prune Endless Summer hydrangeas for bloom and shape?
Prune in spring when new green growth appears; Endless Summer varieties bloom on both old and new wood, so spring pruning supports new growth without sacrificing existing blooms.
Talking turtles and rehabbing wild birds 7/4/26 Hour 1
Q: Why is it important to educate homeowners about turtle habitats and migration corridors?
To prevent cutting off migratory routes or creating barriers like high fences; maintaining habitat spaces and small fence gaps allows movement and reduces injury risk from traffic and urban changes.

Take a photo for documentation, contact the wildlife center through the provided channels, and avoid handling unless absolutely necessary; emphasis on calling/ messaging experts who can triage and transport when needed.
