In this episode of GardenDC: The Podcast about Mid-Atlantic Gardening, we talk with the Gardening Gays -- Kevin and Dragan, all about their transition from small garden to country farm. The plant profile is on Hairy Aster and we share what's going on in the garden as well as some upcoming local gardening events in the What's New segment. We close out with the Last Word on the Ghost Orchid by Christy Page of GreenPrints.
