Georgia summers will almost always have hot, dry periods, and
conserving water will
always be important. Next on "The Georgia
Gardener," host Walter Reeves talks with University of
Georgia horticulturist Gary Wade about
xeris
caping.
Wade identifies some water-stretching landscape plants. He
shows how to save water by
matching the plant to the planting site. And he tells how to
learn more about xeriscaping.
On the same show, which airs July 8 and 10 on Georgia Public
Television, Helen Phillips
of Callaway Gardens will show how she recycled a piece of 8 inch
PVC pipe into a plant
tower. And Parker Andes of Callaway Gardens will show some of the
virtues of oakleaf
hydrangea.
"The Georgia Gardener" is designed especially for
Georgia gardeners. It airs
Thursdays at 7:30 p.m. and Saturdays at 10 a.m. on GPTV.
The show is a production of the University of Georgia College
of Agricultural and
Environmental Sciences and PFC Holding Company.
