In this episode of GardenDC: The Podcast about Mid-Atlantic Gardening, we talk with Jessica Damiano, the Associated Press' gardening columnist, about gardening extremes. The plant profile is on Angelonia 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. We close out with the Last Word on Thelonious Monk from Christy Page of Green Prints.
