In this episode, we talk with Helen Yoest, author of Beginner's Guide to Garden Planning and Design*, about taking simple steps to create good garden design. The plant profile is on Mandevilla 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 Love, Land, and Wisteria from Christy Page of Green Prints.
