In this episode of GardenDC: The Podcast about Mid-Atlantic Gardening, we talk with Dr. Glynn Percival about mulching myths and facts. The plant profile is on Flowering Almonds and we share what's going on in the garden as well as some upcoming local gardening events and this week's garden tasks in the What's New segment.
