gardening, the environment, green living and a lot of humor

Rosarian Susan Fox reports on her experiences as a judge for the Biltmore Rose Trials in Asheville, North Carolina, and as a recent guest of P. Allen Smith at his idyllic place in Arkansas, and talks about how her roses survived this historic winter. Kay Havens from the Chicago Botanic Garden and Scott Hoffman Black of the Xerces Society for Invertebrate Conservation preview a symposium called Make Way for Monarchs, dedicated to helping that species rebound from its decline in the past decade.
