Some garden plants can become lazy, drooping and lying down on
the job. But on
"Gardening in Geogia" July 13 and 15, host Walter
Reeves shows how to train
these plants to be upright citizens of the garden.

Walter uses brushy trimmings, brown string and bamboo stakes
to unobtrusively keep
plants standing tall. He shows the simple way to build a raised
bed for your garden, too,
using pressure-treated lumber. And he shows how scavenged water
from your bathtub and sink
can help your plants.

Finally, Walter visits with University of Georgia
horticulturist Jim Midcap at the
Center for Applied Nursery Research. Midcap briefly describes the
mission of the CANR and
shows several varieties of loropetalum that are being tested at
the center.
