Podcast Episode 8 – Did You Know? Spring Trivia

TulipI think I’m experiencing cabin fever. Too many gray days. I’ve fallen into doing searches on the word “spring”. Spring has become my mantra. Since I can’t get it out of my mind, today’s podcast is a bunch of facts about this much anticipated vernal equinox and the better weather it portends. Like did you know when tulip bulbs first made their way to Germany, they thought they were root vegetables and boiled them with some sugar. Yum. I hope yours are blooming soon.Tulips

Gardening Wisdom

All the flowers of all the tomorrows are in the seeds of today.

— –Indian Proverb

Hello! I'm Marie Iannotti. I’m a gardener who writes, photographs, and speaks about gardening. Slightly irreverent. Always enthusiastic.

I’ve lived in the Hudson Valley since I was a young child, except for a brief stint as a city girl, and consider myself a born again local. I was the gardening expert at About.com for over a decade, but my real fascination is with this beautiful valley. Some people gasp at scenery and say how it looks just like a painting. The Hudson Valley inspired an entire school of painters. I believe it is the most beautiful place on earth.

I also teach eCourses, and have a handful of books. I hope you’ll take a look at them. (My books) And I hope you'll stop by often, to hear about gardens to visit, plants to grow, and the occasional mussing on the poetic side of gardening. Thank you for visiting.

Thank You

"Lovers of edibles need to hang onto their socks! Marie Iannotti has given us a guide to growing 100 of the yummiest and most dazzling heirloom vegetables. I dare you to read this and not drool."

—Ivette Soler, author of "The Edible Front Yard"

“The writing here is as crisp as the layout, which uses colored page edges and a simple, slightly-New Englandy sense of style to get its point across. Best of all, it’s hard to think of anything NOT covered here… and yet there’s no sense of the text book in these pages, and only that homey feel one gets while actually gardening.”

—The Woodstock Times

"Half the interest of the garden is the constant exercise of the imagination." – Mrs. C. W. Earle
