Each week, horticulturalist Felder Rushing shares stories, answers questions and just talks gardening. Of course, you’ll hear a bit of “cheesy music” in every program and you might hear a bad joke or two as well. The Gestalt Gardener is a long-time favorite on MPB Think Radio, due in no small part to Felder’s laid-back, your-neighbors-might-talk-but-so-what approach to gardening.

Two hours is too long.
I was lucky enough to stumble upon this garden party several years ago. Felder and friends keep me positive while I do my gardening and yard work. Love the show!!!!
Gardening podcast from Mississippi by Felder Rushing. Lots of fun and really relaxing. Felder is a character! I love good gardening podcasts and this is one of my favorites. Listen to it while gardening.
I know Felder, met him a few times.
To a true beginning gardener who knows absolutely nothing about plants, biology, etc. Felder is an ok starting point.
However, to a gardener with any basic knowledge, Felder’s advice leaves much to be desired.
Oftentimes, Felder feels stuck in the 1980’s, as most of his plant recommendations have been out of fashion for decades. He clearly has not kept up with trends in horticulture, and if he has, he certainly does not relay that info to his audienc... more
Always a friendly, fun and educational listen. Love Felder’s calm and flexible approach to gardening and Java is great too!

A warm, practical gardening show centered on down-to-earth techniques and community-based know-how. Episodes blend call-in Q&As, hands-on demonstrations, local Mississippi context, and guest interviews with garden designers, horticulturists, and regional experts. Listeners get actionable tips on soil, pruning, weed control, native plants, and sustainable yard care, all delivered in a folksy, neighborly style that emphasizes shared learning and local gardening culture. A standout aspect is the long-running, call-in format that fosters a strong community around everyday gardening challenges, plus frequent on-site events and local club involvement which keeps content tightly tied to regional horticulture.
