In this episode of GardenDC: The Podcast about Mid-Atlantic Gardening, we chat with Duane Pancoast, author of The Geriatric Gardener, all about adaptive gardening. The plant profile is on the Franklin Tree and we share what's going on in the garden as well as some upcoming local gardening events in the What's New segment. We close out with the Last Word on French Drain Systems with Craig McManus, host of The Garden Question Podcast.
