    This is the top gardening podcast in my opinion. Few gardening podcasts delve into the day to day problems we face in our gardens and how to fix them. I’ve learned so much from this podcast and am looking forward to seeing my garden thrive!

  • Amazing information, iffy format.

    It seams in recent weeks there has been far more adds, all for my pillow, and other very conservative company’s and events. I really do not want any sort of politics mixed in with my gardening. I that being said, if you are in the mid south, this is the place to stay current with gardening, the current weather and the coloration between the two.

    That di a excellent job answering call in and text in questions. I just wish it was produced by a different organization, or had different sponsors.

Talking Points

Recent interactions between the hosts and their guests.

Mid South Gardening 11_22_2025
Q: Caller asks about pruning blueberries and what age old canes to remove for better yield; is cutting back old growth to the ground advisable?
Old growth should be removed; cut out oldest canes to the ground, but avoid shearing the plant as it will reduce next year's bloom; typically two to three-year-old canes provide most of the fruit, and you should renew by removing oldest growth annually.
Mid South Gardening 11_22_2025
Q: Chad asks about lasagna planting in containers, whether tulips and daffodils can be too deep, and how to space them.
The experts suggest keeping a bulb base above about 10 inches in a deep container, using layered plantings with careful spacing, and ensuring each layer is covered before adding the next to extend the bloom season.
Mid-South Gardening 5-23-26
Q: How should I tackle a burning bush with mite issues if one application isn't enough?
Blast with a hose to wash off mites, then monitor; if there's a recurrence you may need a light insecticide, but usually washing plus proper watering and fertilization helps them rebound.
Mid South Gardening 11_01_2025
Q: What should I do about frost protection for container plants?
Cover containers with newspaper or a bag to protect the top foliage, remove the covers in the morning to avoid condensation damage, and possibly move pots under a protected area to extend their growing season a bit longer.
Mid South Gardening 1_10_2026
Q: How do you become a Memphis Area Master Gardener?
Applicants must fill out an application (typically available at the end of June), go through an interview process, participate in orientation, then complete a 15-week class starting in January, and finally accumulate required volunteer and education hours to graduate.
