In this episode of GardenDC: The Podcast about Mid-Atlantic Gardening, we talk with award-winning horticultural author, speaker, and podcaster Eva Monheim* about Summer Tree Care. The plant profile is on Lantana 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 "Planting an Herb Garden" from Christy Page of GreenPrints.
