In this episode of GardenDC: The Podcast about Mid-Atlantic Gardening, we talk with Dr. Mark DeBard, board member of the International Lilac Society, all about Lilacs. The plant profile is on Trout Lily 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 Lilac in Nosferatu: Symbolism of Lilacs and Death.
