Description
Welcome to the Garden Hoes Australia Podcast, where we talk all things gardening. Your hosts, Jamie and Erin, will wander down the garden path with tea (or gin) in hand and discuss gardening loves, hates, new discoveries, interview fascinating gardeners, and visit inspiring gardens. We explore the connection people have with gardens and unearth practical tips, along the way.

We went to MIFGS! Erin and Jamie spend this hour dissecting their recent visit to the 2024 Melbourne International Flower and Garden Show. We talk you through our favourites in the hall of flowers, the Avenue of Achievable Gardens and the prize-winning Show Gardens. We also highlight the common themes we saw and some plants that seem to be having a bit of a moment. Grab a cuppa and put us in your ears!
Grab a cuppa and join Jamie and Erin as we discuss mushrooms and a horticultural hack for hydrating your soil during extended hot and dry periods. We are keeping our cool during our Australian Summer, so there’s much talk of irrigation . . . and of course, an update on Jamie’s very own F1 Dahlia seedlings. Enjoy!
We’re back for 2024! After a short break to imbibe champagne, we’re here to regale you with our Summer garden doings. This includes a new puppy for Jamie, Olive Tree propagation, a slug infestation and blackberry management. Jamie is being remarkably (uncharacteristically?) restrained in her Dahlia propagation.
Jamie has visited a couple of new gardens and shares stories of majestic trees and goes into quite a bit of useful information about tree maintenance, particularly in relation to leaf curl.
Jamie and Erin re-cap their recent (very successful) plant buying trip to the Garden Lovers Fair at Bolobek, in Macedon VIC. We share our favourite purchases, an inspiring talk on espalier work and Rhododendrons. We also discuss some of our current vegetable propagation for Summer, as well as some of the least favourite vegetables we’ve grown. Jamie waxes lyrical about stainless steel cable ties and Erin complains about long bakery queues.
Gee, we cover some big topics in this episode: snake bite kits, shade plants, bridging grafting techniques, gypsum application and the Zombie Apocalypse. There’s more than a few horticultural tangents, but we know you all enjoy our meandering chats down the garden path.
The theme of this episode is ‘always add more organic matter!’ We also discuss roses and the dreaded blackspot, biodynamic preparations and fermented cow poo. It’s niche.
In this episode, we chat to Lauren from Foraged Flavour - a boutique, bee-friendly flower farm specialising in edible flowers. This chat ranges from popular edible flower varieties and growing techniques, through to friendly garden bugs, including parasitic wasps! (Hint: if you battle aphids, listen in!)You can find out more about Foraged Flavour at: www.foragedflavour.com.au or https://www.instagram.com/foraged_flavour/
Today we cover (characteristically) large ground, from what we’re NOT buying for the garden, insects who clone themselves and botanical themed snow suits. Stay with us . . . promise it’s worth it!
Welcome to episode 7, with an update on our Wintry garden doings. Although, as always, there are a few tangents on alpacas, miniature goats, and 'Jesus Seeds'. Here's a few links to some of the other accounts and various interesting bits we discuss:The nurseries Jamie vicited:https://www.diggers.com.au/https://gentiananursery.com.au/The 'Jesus Seed':https://www.bbc.com/reel/video/p09m0v4x/extinct-tree-from-the-time-of-jesus-rises-from-the-deadJamie's favourite book:https://www.booktopia.com.au/the-drunken-botanist-amy-stewart/book/9781616200466.htmlAntique Roadshos (Jamie's favourite show):https://www.instagram.com/bbcantiquesroadshow/?hl=enNon contextual Grand Designs (Erin's favourite show):https://www.instagram.com/nocontextgranddesigns/?hl=enRoots and All podcast:https://www.instagram.com/rootsandallpod/?hl=en
In this episode, Jamie and Erin discuss Peonies, nursery visits and unfortunate plant names. They also spend rather too much time discussing rats (and how to stop them eating everything in your garden!).
Join Jamie and Erin for an episode all about propagation - one of Jamie’s very favourite things. We chat about what to propagate when, from cuttings to seeds. We also discuss slugs, Eurovision and soil blocking. Because what’s a propagation discussion without Eurovision?
In this episode, Jamie interview ecologist and environmental photographer, Alison Pouliot. Alison and Jamie delve into a fungi-filled discussion with Alison’s new book, Underground Lovers, as a launching point. They discuss everything from the role of fungi in our ecosystems, the oddly maligned view of fungi, through to glowing ghost fungi. It’s entertaining and educational in equal parts!Head to Alison’s website for more information about her work:https://alisonpouliot.com/
Welcome to episode 2 of the Garden Hoes podcast! This was recorded just prior to Christmas 2022 and highlights Jamie’s visit to Ball Australia and Flemings Nursery, as well as a discussion around frustrating power tools and summer seed sowing.Here’s the links to a few other people or businesses we discuss in the show:https://www.instagram.com/bugsforbugs/?hl=enhttps://www.instagram.com/colouryourworldba/https://www.instagram.com/flemingsnurseries/https://www.instagram.com/charles_dowding/
