Speaker 1 (00:00):
Alrighty, I think we are live, alive and kicking here

Speaker 2 (00:21):
I said, we have three guests today, you, yourself and I.

Speaker 1 (00:26):
The three of us, myself and I, we're the guest.
Somebody guessed Manny, Moe and Jack that that wasn't right,
although I'd like to get them on sometime. That would
be interesting.

Speaker 2 (00:35):
I think they're dead if I'm not mistaken.

Speaker 1 (00:36):
But they have families, kids and stuff.

Speaker 3 (00:38):
You'll destroy the studio.

Speaker 1 (00:40):
Yeah. Anyway, hope you had a good week here we
are kicking off the weekend.

Speaker 2 (00:44):
Tiger thought you were talking about the Three Stooges.

Speaker 1 (00:47):
Yeah, the Pep Boys.

Speaker 3 (00:50):
Oh, the three Stooges.

Speaker 1 (00:52):
Well, that would be Moularry and curly An occasionally shamp
Oh that's funny. I miss that. I missed that. Yeah,
the Pep Boys Manny Moo and Jack. Did they have
a show too, No, I think they had a law firm.

Speaker 2 (01:08):
What.

Speaker 1 (01:08):
No, they were it's petty still around.

Speaker 3 (01:10):
No, it is not. I know, I know what Pep
Boys is defunct?

Speaker 1 (01:15):
Three little made up characters with mustaches?

Speaker 3 (01:17):
Were they made up? They weren't real?

Speaker 2 (01:19):
They were real?

Speaker 1 (01:19):
They were real people.

Speaker 2 (01:20):
Yeah, I think they were. Weren't they brothers or relatives
like yues?

Speaker 3 (01:25):
They owned auto parts slash like repairs.

Speaker 1 (01:28):
Its kind of like Tom Dick and Harry.

Speaker 3 (01:30):
Who's that? I mean, I've heard that term before.

Speaker 1 (01:32):
That would be like, uh, you act like every Tom
Dick and Harry, right?

Speaker 3 (01:37):
Is that just a term? A term like there's not
a real Tom Dick and Harry.

Speaker 1 (01:41):
I'm sure there are, but just not to get in
the same place.

Speaker 2 (01:44):
Okay, Tom Dick and Harry to Tiger is probably like
twenty three Skardo would be tough.

Speaker 1 (01:50):
Now, twenty three Skoodoo was our No, that's that's my
parents generation.

Speaker 3 (01:54):
That's what he's saying.

Speaker 2 (01:56):
It was that so trickling down? Yeah, Okay, like.

Speaker 3 (01:59):
Like you heard twenty three and and like I say,
like I've heard Tom Dick and Hare before, but I
don't know what.

Speaker 1 (02:06):
It means doosie dots and married and.

Speaker 2 (02:12):
Know and little Lambsey divy. Yeah you little Lambsey divy
kittlely divy too, whuldn't you something like?

Speaker 1 (02:22):
So that's where John has a few years.

Speaker 3 (02:23):
So I I you know, it's funny that you talk
about this. I know, hey, and welcome to guard in America. Everybody.

Speaker 1 (02:27):
It's just what show is this? I got to turn
my dart here.

Speaker 3 (02:31):
But it's super funny because I am currently going through
that moment in time where talking with my kids and
finding out how aged I really am. You know. I
mean just the other day, I mean, you know, you
guys know who Justin Timberlake is?

Speaker 1 (02:48):
Absolutely right?

Speaker 3 (02:49):
You know who he is? John?

Speaker 1 (02:51):
Yeah, Okay, he's been around for like thirty years.

Speaker 3 (02:55):
Right he was. He came on the radio the other
day and Isaac's like, who's this? I go, it's Justin Timberlake.
He's like, who's that? You don't know who justin Timberlake is.
He's like, no, don't know who just was he?

Speaker 1 (03:07):
Was he New Kids on the Block or was he
the other one?

Speaker 3 (03:10):
He was in zync?

Speaker 1 (03:11):
In sync? Okay?

Speaker 3 (03:13):
I think New Kids on the Block was before really
that was that was like when we were small children.

Speaker 1 (03:20):
To me, that's that's after I was already adult, grown, working.

Speaker 3 (03:25):
You know, I think it went new Kids on the Block,
Backstree Boys, and then Bactory Boys.

Speaker 1 (03:31):
There you go, I think, I think, Yeah, I'm just
looking to see if somebody on Facebook is just correcting us.
We're chiming in.

Speaker 2 (03:39):
But you know, as long as you're talking about generational
things and Tiger, you've mentioned this to me before about
how garden clubs you thought were dying out, yes, and
that nobody was going to them. But I'm wondering if
this is just my perception because of my involvement with
Row's societies. But I see younger people beginning to join,

(04:02):
people in their thirties joining. I don't know about regular
garden cubs, but a lot of rose societies all of
a sudden.

Speaker 3 (04:10):
Yeah, I agree. I think that there's a new influx
of people that are interested in the subjects, you know,
whether it be roses or plumeria, or orchids or romeliads
or whatever.

Speaker 1 (04:23):
Things do come full cycle. And I got to give
YouTube a lot of credit for being having access. People
can can log on, they can see things, they can
learn things, and they'll come across a lot of things
by mistake. They go what is this? What that's kind
of cool? Is that what roses or whatever? Whatever? What
rose is that? Or whatever plant? Whatever topic or subject.
Like with my son Eric, you know, when he got

(04:43):
a little older, I would I would talk about something
historical and he'd say, well, what was that like? And oh,
let's go to YouTube. I can probably bring up a video.
You know, here are the Beatles at Shay Stadium in
nineteen sixty five. At that time it was the largest
concert venue ever and they were the first group to
play a stadium and he could actually watch it.

Speaker 3 (05:00):
Well, and I really, you know, applaud those people that
do come out for the garden clothes because you know,
to what Brian's saying, and a lot there's a lot
of resources out there, but I will say it in person,
meeting with someone who has a passion for whatever it
is that you maybe share a passion for is way

(05:22):
more valuable than a YouTube video right online tutorial.

Speaker 2 (05:26):
Or probably way more correct.

Speaker 3 (05:28):
Yeah, and then not only just correct, but correct to you.
Because that's the thing is we all we've talked about
this before, where I mean even us we're talking about gardening.
We live in San Diego. We have great knowledge. I mean,
you know, John, you moved all across the country and
have gardened, you know, all over. I grew up in
San Diego, So my familiarity with gardening is southern California.

(05:53):
People that are in Texas and Florida and you know,
Wisconsin and Michigan again and other places might listen to
the program be like, those guys don't know what they're
talking about, right, But it's just because we're familiar with
who we are and what we have to work with you.

Speaker 1 (06:09):
My point was that that YouTube is a tickler. It
can gain your interest and then you seek somebody out. Yeah,
then you go, you know what, I want to look
into this a little more. And I absolutely agree getting
one on one like we talked about before the show,
and then gaining interest and then and then that person
tells somebody else and there you go, and perhaps you
do have a situation where people are back doing things

(06:32):
that everyone used to do.

Speaker 2 (06:33):
Tanya mentions that Tanya in San Jose mentions that the
Cactus and Succulent clubs are doing really well.

Speaker 3 (06:40):
All right, Yeah sure, yeah.

Speaker 2 (06:42):
You know, and San Diego she says, it's got the
big convention coming up. Oh, April twenty.

Speaker 3 (06:48):
Third, what is what is? Is it a society convention?
Do you know what it is?

Speaker 2 (06:54):
It's the she says, the Cactus and Succulent Club of America.

Speaker 3 (06:59):
Well, oh that sounds big. It's in America.

Speaker 1 (07:03):
Yeah, quite as big are we?

Speaker 3 (07:04):
How are we not involved with that?

Speaker 1 (07:06):
Well?

Speaker 2 (07:06):
Maybe we should be there. Yeah, I likely did the
Plumerius Society. Yeah, where's it going to be?

Speaker 3 (07:11):
One?

Speaker 2 (07:13):
Bel Boa Park? Seriously, Well, the last time I went,
I was in Bilboa Park, so I'm pretty sure that
it's there.

Speaker 3 (07:22):
A lot of Cactus.

Speaker 2 (07:24):
And Succulent Society, Uh, Biennial Convention, San Diego, America.

Speaker 1 (07:33):
Boy, you can really get into what do a deep
dive with cactus and succulents? John, You ought to write
a book or be part of a book that broaches
that subject.

Speaker 2 (07:42):
And write a book on the subject. Two of them.

Speaker 3 (07:46):
No, it's coming to San Diego twenty seven.

Speaker 2 (07:49):
Yeah, that's weird.

Speaker 3 (07:51):
It's money working on it right now.

Speaker 1 (07:53):
That's a wow. Not just a day or two five days?
Oh yeah, these people are serious.

Speaker 2 (08:00):
Well, not only that, there's the greatest selection of cactus
and succulents to buy. You might even buy it.

Speaker 1 (08:07):
Well, see, this is it you most people have, you know,
the basics. Cactus here, succulent there. Then you go to
a convention like this and you do a deep dive
when you say, really that's a cactus. That's a succulent.
I can grow that. Like you say, you're going to
see things you've never seen before.

Speaker 2 (08:23):
Right, they probably have. I'm just guessing, but I'm pretty
sure they have seminars at the same time.

Speaker 1 (08:29):
We should do a show from there, if.

Speaker 3 (08:31):
It would be fine to the Mission Valley Marriott.

Speaker 1 (08:34):
Oh, all right, and it's okay, five days. I assume
it would start at the end of the week and
go through the weekend. Do the other dates on there.
I know that's the twenty but what others.

Speaker 2 (08:45):
We need to do? A Saturday, that's what you're saying.

Speaker 3 (08:48):
Yeah, the Wednesday, Thursday, Friday, Saturday, Sun Saturday, Saturday Sunday,
April twenty sixth is the Saturday.

Speaker 1 (08:57):
There we go.

Speaker 3 (08:58):
All right, there'll be a man. They got a ton
of stuff happening.

Speaker 2 (09:05):
You know. Thursday I spoke at the Delmar Rose Society.
The topic was Roses around the World, The prospect of
saving rose varieties in the twenty first century.

Speaker 1 (09:22):
How did you remember all that?

Speaker 2 (09:24):
That wasn't the speech that I gave. That was just
the title.

Speaker 3 (09:27):
Oh, I thought, how did you just remember that?

Speaker 1 (09:29):
I mean, you know, to recall that. I don't. In fact,
I couldn't even repeat what you just said.

Speaker 2 (09:35):
I think I'm gonna give it. There was some people
there from the San Diego Ro Society and they asked
me to give it to them in March, so I'll
be redoing it in March. As a matter of fact, I.

Speaker 1 (09:45):
Was You're like a comedian who goes from town to town,
city by city, tells the same jokes, but but repackages
them for the for the audience.

Speaker 2 (09:53):
You know, I give a lot of talks to rose societies,
and you think that you know, one rose society is
to be similar to another. If you if I went
blindfolded to the Del Marros Society, I would have realized
I was somewhere different because it's the only place I've
ever been where they offered champagne.

Speaker 1 (10:15):
This must be doing Wow. Hey, on that note, we're
going to take a break now. Normally we get all
of our guests during the first, first, and second segments
here during the break, but alas no guest this week.
It is us all the way through the show. Welcoming
those on bis Talk Radio. Thank you for tuning in.
I'm Brian Main, John Begnasco Tucket, Pella Fox. Our first
break for Bistalk Radio, Facebook Live. This is Garden America. Alrighty,

(10:38):
we are back from the break. Thank you to our fertilom,
our major sponsor. The reason that we are broadcasting, the
reason we're on the air, the reason we're on BISZ
Talk Radio, Facebook Live, and all those are the streaming
and digital outlets that you're so familiar with, John Pandora, Spotify, Google,
Alexa will play the latest goole.

Speaker 2 (10:54):
I heard have you early?

Speaker 1 (10:56):
It just goes on and on and on on and
on and on. So we're going to look into the
definite that convention, the uh Cactus and the Succulent Convention.

Speaker 2 (11:04):
Yeah, I should do a book signing there?

Speaker 1 (11:09):
Why not?

Speaker 3 (11:10):
Yeah?

Speaker 1 (11:10):
Bring your books instead.

Speaker 3 (11:11):
Of money book, any book. I'll sign any of your books.

Speaker 1 (11:15):
Who are you anyway?

Speaker 2 (11:16):
Yeah, I don't know if my books are and Cactus
and Succulents, I think they're more basic people who go there,
I think, uh.

Speaker 1 (11:27):
I see what you're saying. But you know what, there's newbies.

Speaker 2 (11:29):
Yeah, well that's true, there's newbies. When I when I
talked to the del Marose Society, there was a woman
who said, this is my first meeting. Actually she was
from India, but she lived in delmar now and she
said it was her first meeting and she only had
ten roses, but she wanted to learn.

Speaker 1 (11:49):
See, yeah, you got to start someplace. Lenora likes the
flowers in the newsletter.

Speaker 2 (11:59):
Who's was that?

Speaker 1 (12:01):
Which one? Oh?

Speaker 2 (12:02):
Maybe yours?

Speaker 1 (12:03):
You asked me? Which this is the one that you
gave me in a little.

Speaker 2 (12:08):
This was a while ago, though, because I gave you
a new one for Christmas?

Speaker 1 (12:11):
Right, and this is not that one? No, that one's
still small.

Speaker 2 (12:13):
Yeah. This one I gave you was the klalily called
Green Goddess, and it was in a little teeny pot. Yeah.

Speaker 1 (12:22):
And I should have taken I should have stood back
and taken a picture of the whole thing.

Speaker 2 (12:26):
It's should have done a timeline.

Speaker 1 (12:28):
It's huge. It's this thing is taken off because I
transplanted and put in a big pot.

Speaker 2 (12:32):
It looks like somebody took a paint brushs green paint
and just painted the end of the flower.

Speaker 1 (12:38):
You suggested, you said, now when you transplant it, you
suggested soil, which I contemplated for a while and thought,
you know what, let me give this a shot. He
seemed to know what he's talking about. Bless you, by
the way. You can't get away from that. That have
to be acknowledged. Yeah, you didn't hide that anyway.

Speaker 2 (12:57):
You're not one of those people that just throws those
blesses around either. No, you really mean it.

Speaker 1 (13:01):
I ga zoon height. What was that in Seinfeld? Instead
of saying, you know, God, bless you.

Speaker 2 (13:07):
You're so good looking.

Speaker 1 (13:10):
And if that was the case, people would sneeze more
so people are probably wondering as we are. You know.
Second segment into the show, what is it you guys
are going to talk about today? What did the news
left you?

Speaker 2 (13:23):
Is it your birthday?

Speaker 3 (13:24):
My birthday?

Speaker 2 (13:25):
Why are you picking up a gift from your dad?
I don't know.

Speaker 3 (13:29):
Oh, is there a message?

Speaker 2 (13:31):
Well, a message from Mission Hill's nursery. It says, good morning, guys, Tigers,
stopped by the day to pick up a gift from
your dad.

Speaker 3 (13:39):
Maybe he just wants to give me a gift.

Speaker 1 (13:42):
The gift could be an invoice bill, the bill that
you got to build.

Speaker 2 (13:46):
Speaking of bills, am I scheduled yet or not worked
into the schedule.

Speaker 3 (13:50):
I'm still working on it, man, still working on it.
Well by March, right, that's what that's your deadline.

Speaker 2 (13:57):
No, no, no, there's no deadline. No, but ever works out,
it would be nice.

Speaker 1 (14:02):
But oh you have the work done at your place?

Speaker 3 (14:04):
Yea.

Speaker 2 (14:05):
This beautifuls of the wedding coming up.

Speaker 3 (14:07):
His beautification project. It's fun, that's f fun fun.

Speaker 2 (14:12):
It's fun planting now because the soil we had a
little bit of rain softer and it got after the
first rain we had. We had two rains. Right, the
first rain, I went out there and tried to dig
with a shovel and I got down half an inch.

Speaker 3 (14:24):
Uh.

Speaker 1 (14:26):
Look who you just checked in from Michigan.

Speaker 2 (14:29):
That's my brother. Oh it's been a while, it has
been a while.

Speaker 1 (14:33):
Yeah.

Speaker 3 (14:34):
Nice.

Speaker 2 (14:35):
So second rain, he's going to be out here in March,
coming with yes, my brother and sister in.

Speaker 1 (14:44):
Law for the wet for the wedding that he's the
tiger's doing the work to beautify.

Speaker 2 (14:48):
Yeah, yeah, maybe he'll pitch in. My brother's a great
do it yourself for.

Speaker 3 (14:55):
What were we talking about. Oh so the second rain
you got, your first rain got down, I haven't it.

Speaker 2 (15:00):
Happen in the second one. I could get down a
full shovel.

Speaker 3 (15:03):
Oh nice.

Speaker 2 (15:04):
So that and I put in a little bit of
the reason this is exciting to me is that because
I've planted probably fifteen roses in the last few days,
only got one more gopher. But that puts me at
sixty five? Where am I going with this?

Speaker 3 (15:24):
Oh planting?

Speaker 2 (15:25):
I usually everything that was planted on that hill had
to be with a jackhammer before. At this time, everything
I could work with the shovel. And I think it's
because I let all the weeds grow on the hill
and the roots went in and.

Speaker 3 (15:37):
Broke started breaking everything abart And.

Speaker 1 (15:40):
No, there is There is a lot of fun, isn't it.

Speaker 2 (15:44):
It is cool, It's cool, But I have a lot
of really rare you know, I think we lose. People
would rather hear us talk about about old records and
sayings than they would about roses. Sometimes the way I
feel because I just get into the weeds when we

(16:05):
talk about roses, sometimes literally too. But anyway, there's a
Australia's most famous rose breeder was Alistair Clark in the
twenties and thirties.

Speaker 1 (16:16):
You just talked about him last couple of weeks.

Speaker 2 (16:17):
I think we did. Yeah, And there was a great
collection of his roses at Wisconsin Garden, and one of
the volunteers brought me cuttings. And I have enough now
to where the one trellis area that I have, the
one pergola, can be covered completely with Alistair Clark climbing roses. Wow,

(16:38):
so I've got that. And then there's a whole bunch
of bush roses. So I'm thinking that one whole area
might be Australian roses.

Speaker 1 (16:45):
The section from down Under.

Speaker 2 (16:47):
Yeah, yeah, and it is if you look at my property,
it is the section that's down.

Speaker 1 (16:51):
Under right south of the equator. As people say, I don't.

Speaker 2 (16:58):
Know about south of the equator. I think there's still
north of the equator.

Speaker 1 (17:01):
No, but figuratively, Oh you mean for them, yes.

Speaker 2 (17:04):
Okay, I got it.

Speaker 3 (17:07):
Now. Are there any native roses to Australia.

Speaker 2 (17:12):
No, No, right, they've all been There's no roses native
to the southern hemisphere.

Speaker 3 (17:18):
Oh yeah, I remember, yeah, yeah, all.

Speaker 2 (17:20):
Roses are question northern hemisphere. Wait speaking you know again,
often attengent.

Speaker 1 (17:28):
But it's Okay, we spoke.

Speaker 2 (17:31):
Do you remember I think you were involved?

Speaker 1 (17:34):
Maybe not, depends tell the story.

Speaker 2 (17:36):
I'll tell you if I was like, Okay, well it
was years ago, years and years ago, and when we
used to do do trivia questions on air. Okay, so
I'm with you so far, okay. And we did a
trivia question where everyone had a part of a script
to read, and we had Bert Senior did a part,

(17:58):
and and and we had several people do parts of
this trivia question and it was who done it? Trivia
question and you had to find out who the killer
was to win the thing. And there was an expedition
going on in Africa and the one person everybody came

(18:19):
in and told their story of where they were when
the murder was committed. And one of the researchers on
the trip said that he was he had been caught
on a cactus as they were exploring the African wilderness
and so there was no way that he could get

(18:40):
back for their meeting in time, and that's when the
guy was killed. And he says, well, it couldn't have
been me, because I was stuck on a cactus. So
you hear all these different excuses people have and you
say who's the killer and it turned out to be
the guy that said he was stuck on a cactus
because there were no cactus native to the old world.

Speaker 1 (18:59):
It is breaked. Maybe some more stories coming up. John
harkenback if you would, Hey, whatever's on your mind? Facebook
Live questions, comments, Feel free. Those on bistalk Radio, thank
you for tuning in. We are going to take a break, Brian,
Me and John bag Nascar at Tiger Palafox. Here it
is garden America. A happy weekend. Back after these messages. Okay,
we trust you had a good break. Those on bis
talk Radio a bit longer. Thank you for supporting our sponsors.

(19:21):
Thank you to Fertilom. Just got this text that says,
when is John going to do the quote of the week?
Funny you should ask, and funny you should text at
this time because he's going to do it right now.

Speaker 3 (19:34):
Brian.

Speaker 2 (19:34):
The quote is from Ruth Stout who I don't believe
was but anyway, she is a garden writer.

Speaker 1 (19:44):
Stout right, I'm with you, and.

Speaker 2 (19:47):
She said there's a privacy about winter which no other
season gives you. In spring, summer, and fall, people sort
of have an open season on each other. It's only
in the winter in the country you have longer quiet
stretches when you can savor belonging to yourself.

Speaker 1 (20:06):
It's a paragraph.

Speaker 3 (20:08):
It was good though.

Speaker 1 (20:09):
Yeah, well she's right, you know, the time of reflection.

Speaker 3 (20:12):
And did we talk about this on air or just
behind the scenes last week when I was talking to
you guys about the Twilight Zone and how I've seen
a shift in generations where there was that theme of
loneliness in Twilight Zone and that's scared to be alone
and scared to be you know, deprived of social interaction

(20:33):
and almost feel like we've shifted where I think more
people are looking to be removed. Like I feel that
I get you, like I feel that quote is that,
you know, embracing the loneliness kind of a thing that
I feel like our generation almost looks for more like they.

Speaker 2 (20:51):
Can never be alone, you know, just like you know,
I wish I could be alone for a while.

Speaker 3 (20:56):
Yeah.

Speaker 2 (20:57):
Here's I don't want any more input from airwaves.

Speaker 1 (21:00):
Here's something to contemplate to speaking of social changes, pop culture, whatever.
So the telephone was invented what mid eighteen hundreds, more
or less telephone late eighteen.

Speaker 2 (21:11):
Hundreds, Alexander Graham, Belle right, come here, I need you.

Speaker 3 (21:15):
So.

Speaker 1 (21:16):
Yeah, so we've had the ability to speak to somebody
over the phone.

Speaker 3 (21:19):
Yeah.

Speaker 1 (21:19):
Now one hundred, one hundred and fifty years later, now
we can text. Everybody's texting. I don't want to call it,
just text. It's a lot easier. Yeah, Suppose that was different.
Suppose they came up with texting back in the eighteen
hundreds and you couldn't talk to anybody for one hundred years,
and all of a sudden they said, hey, you can
pick up the phone and talk to somebody. Really, I
can talk to them.

Speaker 3 (21:39):
Don't you think that?

Speaker 1 (21:40):
I think people would be more excited about that.

Speaker 3 (21:41):
What came out before? First? Was it the telegraph or
the phone?

Speaker 2 (21:47):
Marconi was first?

Speaker 1 (21:48):
Marconi was first.

Speaker 3 (21:49):
That was a telegraph.

Speaker 1 (21:50):
I think that was a radio. Well you then, but
you've got like a Morse code, which they used back.

Speaker 3 (21:57):
But that's what I'm saying. No, didn't like a telegraph.

Speaker 1 (22:00):
Well that's on the Titanic and all those old ships
would communicate with each other to a degree. But you
get my point.

Speaker 3 (22:08):
Now, he went backwards.

Speaker 2 (22:10):
I remember it in nineteen ruining your story.

Speaker 3 (22:12):
Yeah, you know what he's doing.

Speaker 1 (22:15):
He's he's picking up at parts so we can do
a deep dive, and he's creating thinkers out of this room,
is what he's doing. But but it's like I remember
as a kid going to Disneyland and Pacific Bell had
a what do you want to call it? A room
all set up? Yeah, okay, and they had picture phones
and this is like early sixties, and they would let

(22:35):
you like pick it up and see somebody. But it
was it was different. It wasn't like computers, completely different technology.
And we're like that a few years there'll be picture
phones and you can actually see somebody. Well, that never
happened for another.

Speaker 2 (22:50):
I remember my dad telling me when I was a
little boy. He would always go, you know, someday they're
going to have a phone and you can see who
you're talking, right, you know. It's just you know, how
can it be somebody else to turn on their TV?
How is this gonna work?

Speaker 3 (23:04):
Yeah? You know, go ahead?

Speaker 1 (23:06):
Is there a question he's gonna tie this into gardening somehow?
You want?

Speaker 2 (23:10):
No, I was gonna mention that. Paula, one of our
faithful listeners, said that Ruth Stout did a wonderful movie
of her garden and she and Paula shared it with
her New York friends. They had a great party.

Speaker 1 (23:27):
Yeah wow hmm.

Speaker 3 (23:30):
So to her quote, I have a question for our listeners,
and I have a question for you guys in the room.

Speaker 1 (23:35):
Solitude, being alone, all.

Speaker 3 (23:36):
That and gardening, Okay, would you rather because honestly, this
is a this is a special relationship. And I'm saying
this is almost above like a marriage to me, somebody
that you could garden with in the same garden, meaning

(23:57):
you know, like Janina and I, we have our areas.
She works in the house, I work out of the house.

Speaker 1 (24:04):
I got it.

Speaker 3 (24:04):
If she was to come outside and start putting her
input on what and how and why, it.

Speaker 2 (24:13):
Would irritate you. Yes, I know that, and so and so.

Speaker 3 (24:20):
Are There are there couples out there that do garden
well together, you know, And and you know that is
a that is a special relationship because when I'm gardening,
when I'm out there working, I have my own path,
my own way that I'm doing things. And and it's
easy for me because I make a decision and whether

(24:41):
it's A to C two D, back to B two
end and Z, that's fine. I don't want someone out
there being like, well, if you did it this way,
this way.

Speaker 1 (24:49):
This way, but your decisions are based upon knowledge and
previous experience.

Speaker 3 (24:52):
No, but I'm just saying in general, like, so you.

Speaker 2 (24:55):
Know, you're saying it would be like if he went
in the house in the middle of Janine making dinner
and started a yes, yes, exactly yeah. No.

Speaker 3 (25:03):
I so you know, are there couples out there that
do garden together? And how does that work out?

Speaker 1 (25:09):
Even Claire Rlinger, I thought your question was going to
be of anybody in history that you could garden with,
the famous person who would you like to guard be that?
That's where I thoughts were going. And that's another one too.
We can contemplate that's anybody in history are alive or
passed on, who would you garden with?

Speaker 2 (25:28):
Well, now that you bring that up.

Speaker 1 (25:33):
Carlo's got a question too.

Speaker 2 (25:34):
By the way, Well that's this pertains to Carla's question
because you said anyone in history. And then I'm thinking
about the parable that Jesus had of the fig.

Speaker 1 (25:42):
The fig tree. I knew you were going.

Speaker 2 (25:44):
And Carla has a question about figs.

Speaker 3 (25:46):
Okay, so.

Speaker 2 (25:49):
We go from the Bible to Carla and transition Yeah,
she's looking to put a fig tree in a pot,
and the pots the size of a half barrel perfect,
and it might be a little bit smaller. But she's
wondering or she's considering little Miss Figgy okay or Phenomenal yep.

(26:13):
And she's also seen Violette de Bordeaux recently, which is
an older one, and she wants thoughts or advice on
what to choose.

Speaker 3 (26:24):
Well, I've had it. I have experience with phgnomenal and
I like it. So I've got I've got no negative.

Speaker 2 (26:30):
And it would probably be good for that size container.

Speaker 3 (26:33):
Yes, So I have no negative things to say about
Phenomenal little Miss Figgy. I have not grown, but I've
seen it. I know, I know about it, and I
don't think I have a a negative against that. Besides that,
maybe if I'm comparing the flavors to Phenomenal to little

(26:54):
Miss Figgy, again, I like Phignomenal. So but I haven't
tried little Miss Figgy. Do you know anything about that one?

Speaker 2 (27:01):
Not about the flavor. But I think that the Violetta
Bordeaux is is phenomenal flavor, uh huh. And but it's
going to be larger than the other two Okay, still
a dwarf, especially compared to Miss black Vision. It's going
to be a huge tree. But all of them I
think would do in the container phenomenal and and miss

(27:27):
little Miss Figgy may last for more years than that container.
But I think it was me I'd go with violettro Bodeaux.

Speaker 3 (27:37):
And I mean the thing about figs too is number one,
they're like low quats in the sense of the production
is just always through the roof.

Speaker 2 (27:45):
Well, also like low coots, and the fact that you
don't see them very often in supermarket. Yeah, so because
they don't ship.

Speaker 3 (27:52):
Well, yeah, like to get them, like you have to
be very seasonal or a farmer's market or something like that.
But so they so so even a small tree is
going to produce enough for a family. But then the
other thing too is that they take to pruning well,
meaning you can control its size really easily and still

(28:18):
have good production, still have a good sized plant. So
you know, yeah, try how do you say, Violetta de
Bordeaux filet, Fiolette du du Bordeaux, Bordeaux, Violette du Duh
duh duh Brian Bordeaux. But try it, because you know,
even if it is going to get a little bit bigger.

Speaker 2 (28:40):
It can be like a heritage fig. You know, a
lot of those heritage fruits have some of the best flavor.

Speaker 3 (28:47):
And the reason why, you know, like we talked about
this with the avocado, the reason why they maybe haven't
become more popular isn't because of the flavor or anything.
It's because they don't ship well like you say, or
you know, they don't passage or.

Speaker 2 (29:00):
They all those are the kind of things you should grow.

Speaker 3 (29:02):
Yeah, things because you can't.

Speaker 2 (29:04):
Can't normally get you know, sometimes you think, like apples,
I will see apples, you know, I will every day
of the year.

Speaker 3 (29:11):
I will say, though, Carla, I highly recommend planting it
in a cactus mix because I found I found that,
especially in the wintertime, the figs will rot in a
in a heavy potting soil. Even so, but I mean,
at the same time, if you're not a good waterer,
they do, they do love water.

Speaker 2 (29:33):
And also don't you think as the roots fill out
the container that that's not as much of a problem,
right because it's not gonna hold as much. Well, I'm
not going to hold as much I want, you know,
I guess it depends where you are. Carla is on
the coast, and so they're going to dry out. Uh,
we're gonna pointing at me.

Speaker 1 (29:53):
I know we're gonna take a I keep pointing at me. Hey,
a break for Biff Talk Radio. Back after these messages.
This is Garden America. Okay, we are back. If you
are tuned in on Bistalk Radio, this is the final
segment of hour one. We do this for two hours
every Saturday, news coming up top of the hour for
Bistalk Radio only, and then we resume it six minutes
after for those of us on Facebook Live, though. We

(30:13):
just it's one continuous loop. So sometimes we end up
where we began, and sometimes we begin when we end up, John.

Speaker 2 (30:20):
The uh talking about figs you were?

Speaker 3 (30:22):
Were you real quick because you didn't finish the soil.

Speaker 1 (30:25):
Yeah, the soil thing.

Speaker 2 (30:26):
Oh yeah, I was gonna say on the soil at
least where I am. I excuse me. I would never
use straight cactus mix, but I might mix pear light
or something. No, I might mix cactus mix with potting.

Speaker 3 (30:39):
Soil something like that. Yeah.

Speaker 2 (30:40):
Yeah, but you probably should improve the drainage. Yeah, But
again the difference is gonna be where are you, you.

Speaker 3 (30:48):
Know, and how you water right? You know, because like
we talked about, like if you're a if you're a
good waterer, you have to have something more draining because
you don't want to overwater things. If you're a bad waterer,
you don't mind the heavies soils that hold moisture because
you're not going to water as frequent.

Speaker 2 (31:04):
Picture in my mind just came up with somebody in
a fire hose. That would be bad water blasting. Yeah,
knocking things over.

Speaker 1 (31:12):
You're a bad water, a very bad water.

Speaker 3 (31:16):
So did someone ask about how to prune?

Speaker 1 (31:18):
Yeah? That was Veronica.

Speaker 3 (31:21):
Yeah, so, I mean, you know, it's it's obviously the
time of year for us in southern California to do
a lot of our pruning with the dormant things. And
you know, the first place to start is any debt
or broken branches or crossing branches, you know, we you know,
any number one debt is because you're removing excess growth

(31:43):
or you know, plant energy, you know, or work broken
again for the same thing, or just damaged areas. And
then crossing is you're you're preventing areas on the plant
to get wounds, you know, anytime you have a crossing branch,
they're you're opening it up to rub up against each
other during a wind or just normal normal growth, and

(32:03):
then you can have a wound develop which will open
yourself up for like disease, or a broken branch or
an entangled or choked off branch. So you start with
those first, and then you know, just for figs, prune
to shape. You know, they respond pretty well to you know, prune.

Speaker 2 (32:23):
To shape taking if you prune them this time of
year though. Figs usually have two crops, right, and you
might be pruning off some of the first crop. But
they do fruit on newwood too, So I would say,
like you're saying, just prune whenever you need to. It's
you can let them grow as big as you want.
Veronica in Spring Valley mentioned she has a Blackjack fig

(32:45):
in a pot, and do you remember blackjacks? It might
be a little bit before your time, no, but blackjack
was touted as the first dwarf fig, even though what wasn't.
And when you plant blackjack on the ground, it gets
to be twenty feet tall. And I would never.

Speaker 1 (33:03):
Dwarf by what standards, Yeah, I would.

Speaker 2 (33:04):
Never say that was a dwarf and and fast growing too.

Speaker 3 (33:09):
Figs. Figs are very fast.

Speaker 2 (33:11):
Yeah, well Blackjack would grow fast. The reason I guess
it was a dwarf. It would grow fast to twenty
feet and stop.

Speaker 3 (33:17):
That ideal plant.

Speaker 2 (33:18):
Yeah, but anyway, Veronica has hers in a container, so
maybe in a container it would uh control the size, yeah,
control it a little bit. So I don't know, you know,
talking about the couple's work gardening together.

Speaker 1 (33:33):
You got a lot of a lot of response on Facebook.

Speaker 3 (33:35):
Oh yeah, yeah.

Speaker 2 (33:36):
Lisa says that she likes to she works well with
her husband because she directs them napole wes trim trees.

Speaker 3 (33:43):
Yeah, gives them a checklist of things to do.

Speaker 2 (33:47):
Yeah, I love it.

Speaker 3 (33:50):
Are there some more commons?

Speaker 2 (33:52):
Well, she doesn't trust them.

Speaker 1 (33:53):
No.

Speaker 2 (33:53):
Water really yeah really wow.

Speaker 3 (33:58):
Watering is a it is a big deal. I mean,
you know the way that you water things and it's
your garden. It's I've I've had the horror stories of
people coming, Oh I went away and I had somebody
water the garden for me, and it's just like, for
some reason, it's just not the same as when you

(34:18):
water right.

Speaker 1 (34:19):
Not at all, and because well you know what it's like.

Speaker 3 (34:23):
But I mean we're talking people that garden, you know,
we're talking people that do guard.

Speaker 1 (34:28):
But if you drop your kids off with the babysitter,
they become the quote unquote parents for two hours.

Speaker 3 (34:35):
Yeah, it's gonna be a little different.

Speaker 1 (34:36):
They're still nurturing, they're still doing what they should do,
but not the way you would do it. And I
get the watering thing. I know exactly what needs water,
what doesn't need water. I know how much to give
a certain plant and other plants like you know what,
you're not ready to water yet where somebody would come
by and just water everything unless you gave them a
detailed list, and then it just go crazy and go
you know, I'm just gonna water everything because I can't remember. Yeah,

(34:59):
this makes no sense.

Speaker 2 (34:59):
To La mentions that when her and her husband gardened,
that he digs the hole and she picks the flowers.

Speaker 3 (35:10):
There you go, nice. I had a conversation to what
John was saying earlier with the dwarf and and this
is I cannot stand, you know, mass merchant gardening stuff.
I had somebody come to me and they were like,
oh no, I got a dwarf hass avocado, And I

(35:34):
was like that doesn't. That doesn't exist.

Speaker 2 (35:36):
There's no such thing.

Speaker 3 (35:37):
They're like, no, no, no, it says it on the label.
I picked it up, you know whatever, and it's a dwarf. Hoss.
I'm like that that doesn't exist, like you know what
I mean, like there is no dwarf. Because they go
they or like when people tell me about the citrus
and they go, no, no, this is a this is a.

Speaker 2 (35:54):
Dwarf, true dwarf.

Speaker 3 (35:56):
This is a true dwarf, right exactly. And I'm like, no, no, no,
that doesn't that doesn't exis.

Speaker 2 (36:00):
But it says on the tag.

Speaker 3 (36:01):
It's either a semi dwarf or it's a standard. And
I go and even the semi dwarf is only like
eighty percent of a standard citrus height, you know. So,
and they have this perception because they go to these
places and they see these tags. These tags sell them
on this oh this little cute little one gallon cum

(36:22):
quat that's fruiting and it's a dwarf tree. They think
it's going to stay that way. It's like, no, no, no,
that is going to turn into a tree.

Speaker 2 (36:29):
Well, you know the deceptive part about that is there
there are dwarf citrus oh yeah, and uh, they're on
flying dragon rootstock and they'll only get to be six
feet tall. But nobody grows on flying dragon rootstock because
it takes so long to produce a plant. So you've
got people putting out tags that are on semi dwarf

(36:50):
root stocks and they are called true dwarf dwarfs and
they're not true dwarf.

Speaker 3 (36:54):
No, no, yeah, they're lying dwarf. Yeah, yeah, exactly. Yeah.
I mean when when he told me, he's like, oh no,
it's a it's a hass avocado, that's dwarf. I go, no, no,
no like that. You know you've got little coddo, you
got Mexico? You got these other fridays, but there is
no holiday. It is a good one, yeah, holiday, But
I go, there is no dwarf. Haas, it's it's not

(37:16):
part of that.

Speaker 1 (37:19):
It's so deceptive when when people that have little knowledge
going to stores like that and unless they talk to
somebody like you, what happens you know, six months down
the road when they're like, hey, this tag says this
was a.

Speaker 3 (37:34):
What it yeah?

Speaker 1 (37:35):
Or I mean was it mis labeled?

Speaker 3 (37:38):
Yeah?

Speaker 1 (37:38):
You know, maybe it was miss labeled.

Speaker 3 (37:40):
Yeah, No, you're so right, like, and it's not even
six months. Sometimes it's less than that. Well or no,
sometimes it's three years. They planted that way, They planted
that avocado next to their house because they thought it
was a dwarf.

Speaker 2 (37:52):
We got to take a break, alright.

Speaker 1 (37:54):
It is top of the hour news for biss Talk Radio. Doo,
stay with us. Hopefully you get our number two or
second hour six minutes after for the rest of us
on Facebook Live. Back after news on Bistalk Radio, A
quicker break. This is Garden America. Well we have returned.
If you're on Bistalk Radio, welcome to our number two.
Hopefully you heard our number one. You can always go
to our Facebook page every weekend and join us live

(38:16):
Garden America Radio Show, interact and be part of the
inner tribe, as John likes to call us. Here those

beginning to the end. And again that's Garden America dot
com as well. And again on Facebook Live, we've got
a shot out six minutes after the hour, shout out.

Speaker 2 (38:34):
From our friend Hastam.

Speaker 1 (38:37):
A shout out always you can always depend on his stom. Yeah,
you know, talk about being part of the inner tribe.
He's he's he's there in the trenches with us.

Speaker 2 (38:44):
Well, you've made him the head of Garden America and Pakistan.

Speaker 1 (38:49):
As a fan club. He's the president of the Garden
America Fan Club in Pakistan and we do appreciate that.

Speaker 2 (38:55):
Did I ever tell you? I think I'm sure I've
mentioned this story on the radio a few times, but
that I met the president of the Betty White fan club.

Speaker 3 (39:04):
Oh I remember you did share this story.

Speaker 1 (39:06):
Yeah, it was a while back.

Speaker 3 (39:07):
Yeah, well it was that a rose auction.

Speaker 2 (39:11):
No, no, it wasn't it a rose auction. It was
uh at the Armstrong Nursery in Torrance, and I forget
what I was doing there, but they came up to
me and mentioned they wanted to name a rose after
Betty White, and is there any way that I could

(39:32):
help them? So it's like a natural. Yeah. Well, at
the time I had a lot of influence over rose
growers because I was one of their largest accounts.

Speaker 3 (39:43):
So they'll name it, they'll name it anything.

Speaker 2 (39:47):
Well actually they did, yeahctly, and eventually they even paid
me to name roses.

Speaker 1 (39:51):
It is it a white rose?

Speaker 2 (39:54):
It is white with a soft pink blow. But yeah,
it was White. It's kind of natural, right, Yeah, so
star ros Is. It was part of the Romanica series
and they were already going to put it out and
name it something else. And when I suggested Betty White,
they immediately went to Betty White because the name they

(40:15):
were going to use was White Romantica.

Speaker 3 (40:17):
Oh yeah, Betty Boop, Betty Boop Rose.

Speaker 2 (40:20):
Remember there is a Betty boot pros exactly. I think
that was. I'm not positive, but I think it was
the first rose named after a cartoon, No way, really,
I think Stetty Boop first.

Speaker 1 (40:32):
So now I'm thinking of all the cartoons out there
that have roses named after them. Is there olive oil?

Speaker 3 (40:40):
Well?

Speaker 2 (40:40):
There is. Pertoli's is the one that we usually use.

Speaker 1 (40:46):
You know, what you can tell people that have been
in radio or media or what we do because you
can't get a straight answer out of anybody. Everything's a joke,
everything's material. You know, everything's got something behind it. You know.

Speaker 2 (40:59):
Carla was looking for a dwarf avocado for a pot.
And we mentioned some of the names, but maybe we
should mention the characteristics of holiday because some of them,
I think, well might stay a little shorter than holiday.
But holiday is great. For a container, and it's kind
of weeping. I like that appearance, even if you put

(41:22):
it in the ground. The fact that it's weeping means
that the fruits usually within reach lower. Yeah, and it's
called holiday because it begins to ripen Labor Day and
goes all the way through Christmas. So that's one I
would recommend. The other you mentioned was little kado, which

(41:42):
is good, but sometimes am I correct on this? Sometimes
it's alternate bearing, right, Yeah, so you might only get,
you know, a good crop every other year, So I'd
go with holiday and holidays.

Speaker 3 (41:56):
The fruit size is really you know, good on it.

Speaker 1 (41:59):
Yeah.

Speaker 3 (41:59):
Well, yeah, you know where the little Codo in Mexico,
they actually usually have smaller fruits.

Speaker 1 (42:04):
All right, this just came to mind. So so next
week is the Super Bowl. Yes, isn't that like one
of the biggest selling days for avocado.

Speaker 2 (42:14):
Guaco number one snack food, number one snack food.

Speaker 3 (42:17):
Yep, Molver Bowl yeap?

Speaker 1 (42:21):
What are you going to look it up?

Speaker 3 (42:22):
Fallbrook is crazy, Fallbrooks.

Speaker 1 (42:25):
You must have people just all over the place up
there looking for avocados.

Speaker 2 (42:29):
Running down rushing trees, and well, all the avocados Fallbrook
is selling right now. Are from Mexico. Yeah, exactly, because
it's off season.

Speaker 3 (42:39):
Yep, yeah, yeah, but yeah avocado. Yeah, it's the number one,
which is funny to think because.

Speaker 1 (42:48):
Most areas they've never even heard of an like.

Speaker 3 (42:50):
You just also, you know, we talked about like, I mean,
that's that's nationwide. That's not even just California where you
would think, oh yeah, that makes sense. No, I mean
everywhere across the country makes a guacamalle dip for a
Super Bowl, which I think it's funny. It's like why
is that? Why is that? And especially you know, we
laugh at these things because as John mentioned, it's off season,

(43:14):
meaning it's not you know, you know there's things, there's
things out there and they're popular because they were the
thing in season sure for that time, and it became
popular because it's the season. You know, there's there's a
lot of cherry dishes that happened you know at a
certain time of year, or peach dishes or you know,

(43:35):
things like that. But avocado is off season for the
Super Bowl, which which is funny because what is it
the mandarin right is the like symbol for is it
you know Chinese New Year and or kumquat or something
like that, you know, but they're in season. It makes sense.
Imagine if they tried to make it off season and

(43:58):
then work with their holiday.

Speaker 1 (44:02):
Interesting twist.

Speaker 2 (44:03):
Yeah, let's see. I was looking here and I think
that Carl is referring to the holiday avocado. She wants
to know where to get it, and she had mentioned
she had an a gift certificate Armstrongs. And I think

(44:23):
if Armstrongs doesn't have it, you could order it from them. Yeah,
you probably holiday or could get a holiday.

Speaker 1 (44:29):
Yeah.

Speaker 3 (44:30):
If we don't have it, we can get it. Yeah,
I mean that's not a terribly hard to find, no one,
pretty much. We have two growers in sun of California.
One's called Durlings and one called the Burn And I
think actually they were one and the same. Now, oh
are they Yeah? I feel like there was a something
that happened and either one bought out the other or
something of that nature. And so that's that's one that's

(44:55):
readily available to us. So any local nursery should be
able to at least order it for you. If not
have it, so call around. Yeah, we really it's tough.
We don't have many citrus growers anymore in southern California,
it's a challenge.

Speaker 2 (45:16):
Well, it's so hard to grow citrus anywhere in the
whole country, Yeah, because you can't ship between states and
the way.

Speaker 3 (45:23):
You grow it like nowadays with California, like, yeah, you
have to grow it in a structure and you have
to treat them.

Speaker 1 (45:31):
Yeah.

Speaker 2 (45:31):
And I was going to say, you can't ship between
states and in California can't even ship between counties sometimes.

Speaker 3 (45:37):
Yeah.

Speaker 2 (45:38):
Yeah, so let's see.

Speaker 3 (45:42):
But you know, there's a couple of rare fruit growers
and up by john up in Fallbrook is a wonderful
selection of different rare fruit growers that if you were
looking for something a little bit more unique, you can
find them from them because a lot of times they'll
either have their own contacts or they'll start growing their
own stuff where you know, Johnny Is mentioned a whole

(46:04):
slew of different avocados that they might even have one
that they recommend outside of outside of the regular ones
that we talk about.

Speaker 2 (46:13):
Well, if you want to join a garden club, the
California Rare Fruit Growers has different chapters in different parts
of the state. So yeah, they're always a great source.
They even have you know, budwoods sometimes and there's usually
a member who knows how to graft, and you'll graft
something up for you, you know, maybe for a fee

(46:35):
or maybe because you made them a good friend.

Speaker 3 (46:39):
Yep.

Speaker 2 (46:42):
Lila says that she ordered she ordered a Steward avocado
from Armstrong's Tiger and Thanksgiving and she hasn't.

Speaker 3 (46:53):
Heard a word really, Like I said.

Speaker 2 (46:56):
Are just an advertise with us, and we don't promote them,
We're just mentioning.

Speaker 1 (47:01):
Yeah.

Speaker 3 (47:02):
Yeah, but like I say, like it's tough.

Speaker 2 (47:05):
Yeah, that's hard.

Speaker 3 (47:06):
With citrus in California, we only have maybe two people
to purchase them from, especially when we're talking five gallons. Like,
the thing that happens with fifteen gallons is other nurseries
will buy the fives and then just shift them into fifteen.
So that's why you'll see, you know, other nurseries that
have a wide selection of fifteen gallon avocados or fruit trees,

(47:27):
but not many fives, And so five gallons are much
harder to find, and there's less people that grow him.
So it's kind of hard, I would say. And it's
also a hard time a year for citrus. This is
not the time of year that normally people are buying
citrus trees, and you know you're gonna have a big

(47:49):
selection of them in the store. This time of year.
It's slower and harder to find them. But I will
say one thing too, and this is to.

Speaker 2 (47:58):
Support this like in ten seconds, yes.

Speaker 3 (48:01):
Support the gardens clubs. Is the quality of fruit tree
that you get nowadays is much lower than what you
used to that I'm sure a hobbyists could could graft
something wonderful for you compared to what's in the market.

Speaker 1 (48:16):
Okay, we're going to take a break back after these
messages BIS Talk Radio. This is Garden America. Alrighty, Garden America.
Hands returned from the break. I want to thank those
that are rat tuned in on BIS Talk Radio each
and every week. Thank you, and a big thank you
to our sponsor, Fertile Lom. Here we go three more segments.
We're just smack dab in the middle of the show, John.

Speaker 2 (48:34):
We were prior to the break, we were talking about
avocados and Tiger was mentioning how hard they are to find.
And I have five or six avocados that I'm going
to plant mostly most I guess they're all pretty unusual varieties. Yeah,
compared to what you normally see.

Speaker 3 (48:52):
But I don't think I've ever seen one of the
ones you purchase in the store.

Speaker 1 (48:56):
Really, what are those varieties?

Speaker 2 (48:59):
Marcus Pumpkin sounds like a little.

Speaker 1 (49:01):
Nickname for somebody, Morcus Pumpkin doing.

Speaker 2 (49:06):
Read, which occasionally you can yeah, and you can buy
them in supermarkets sometimes, Gem which is like a giant
has avocado queen. Okay, if you're gonna watch the movie

(49:27):
Bohemian Rhapsody, that's the kind of guacamole. I'm with you,
of course. And uh and Nabel, so.

Speaker 1 (49:37):
To be confused with Nabel.

Speaker 2 (49:38):
This is Nabel, right, So those are the ones. But anyway,
I got all mine on Natsy ship right to my house.
They're going to be smaller, but you know, I usually
like things smaller and watch.

Speaker 1 (49:51):
Them shallow roots obviously, or all avocado tree shallow roots or.

Speaker 2 (49:55):
Not pretty much. Yeah, yeah, anyway, they're they're all doing
really well. And Tiger's going to come out and fix
the back of my house and the hill where they're
going to go on and give irrigation to it. So
as soon as that's done, they're all going to go up.
And I figured that with six avocados I should have

(50:15):
avocados year round before whenever I want.

Speaker 3 (50:18):
Well, I will say we've talked about this concept before too,
that sometimes it's kind of like why do you why
do you plant something? You know, meaning you know, we
talked about like a lemon, and you know they you know,
John has like three lemon trees and he has way
too many lemons and avocados, even though they you know,
when they get a savage, they do produce really well.
It's a valuable it's a valuable fruit, it is, and

(50:40):
it's worth the effort you put into growing it. Right,
The return on it is wonderful.

Speaker 2 (50:45):
Not only that you can give them to friends and
they'll still be your friend.

Speaker 3 (50:49):
Yeah, where you can give a bushel of lemons, right,
I'm just gonna throw this in the trash when you
walk out the door.

Speaker 1 (50:55):
It was a salesmany here a couple of weeks ago,
maybe a month ago, came in with two. Yeah, took
him home them. Took about maybe three or four days
to ripen outstanding.

Speaker 2 (51:04):
Yeah, well, yes, the lemons.

Speaker 1 (51:07):
Yeah, And like Tiger said, you're right, it's like we
couldn't wait, Yeah, we couldn't wait for them to ripen up.

Speaker 3 (51:14):
You know.

Speaker 2 (51:14):
The nice thing about avocados is a commercial crop, is
they won't ripen on the tree. Yeah, so you can
go through and pick them whenever you want and.

Speaker 3 (51:23):
Just leave leave on there. What you don't.

Speaker 2 (51:25):
Yeah, I mean occasionally. I mean if you leave them
too long, they'll just fall off.

Speaker 3 (51:32):
Was there a question about the narcissus?

Speaker 2 (51:34):
Yeah? John and Newport Beach said, Tiger, did you see
this question about narcissus early cheer? And and I guess
I missed that.

Speaker 3 (51:45):
Did you were able to find it or no? Because
I didn't see it either.

Speaker 1 (51:51):
Yeah, go ahead and repost it if you would, and
see if I can. It'll be top of minding unless
we come across it.

Speaker 3 (51:57):
Maybe I can go back. I have a way to
see if I can find it.

Speaker 2 (52:04):
I'm going back, but I don't see it.

Speaker 3 (52:06):
You know, it's funny and you know that that Oh here,
did you know early cheer? It sounds like we're saying
early cheer, right, but it's and then we are saying
early cheer, but it's not. It's it's a is it German?
You know? Is it? Yeah?

Speaker 2 (52:28):
Yeah, you're thinking that's what it is.

Speaker 3 (52:29):
It is?

Speaker 2 (52:30):
Oh, I didn't know that.

Speaker 3 (52:31):
Year liquer yeah, it's it's it's more like thought joyful
or that like that's the word. It's not an English word.

Speaker 2 (52:40):
Oh okay, because I thought it was a play on words,
you know, like it would be an early blooming but
early cheer.

Speaker 3 (52:49):
But it's not early cheer. It's early okur, which is
a different language, and it means more like joy. It
isn't early narcissis. And it's a double one that looks
like a guardena blossop.

Speaker 2 (53:01):
You're both right.

Speaker 3 (53:03):
But you know it's funny when you say things over
the radio and they would instantly like think, oh, this
is you know, early cheer, like go and look for
this guardian or this paper white, and you know they're
gonna pull up something else. It's funny.

Speaker 2 (53:20):
So did you find his question?

Speaker 3 (53:22):
And he hasn't reposted it? Okay, but I'm working on.

Speaker 2 (53:24):
It, I'm sure. Well, Paula mentions you remember the movie
she was talking about earlier, Ruth Stout's Garden.

Speaker 1 (53:31):
Right, it's on YouTube.

Speaker 2 (53:31):
I guess, right, Yeah, I'm gonna watch. That sounds interesting.
I still am trying to figure out. I just have
to do research, I guess, but I think for sure,
you and I talked about this, Brian, but there was
in nineteen sixty two, I think it was either sixty

(53:58):
one or sixty two, there was an ABC special on
TV called The Silent Spring of Rachel Carson, and she
was dying of cancer when they made that, so it
was very interesting and as a young young boy, it

(54:22):
really impressed.

Speaker 1 (54:23):
Me, strapping young Lenda might add.

Speaker 2 (54:27):
And I never forgot that video, but I always wanted
to see it again, and that's something you can't find
on YouTube, and I could never find it anywhere, and
I thought, you know, I wonder do they keep copies
of those? You know, do they get lost? And I'm

(54:50):
trying to think now, maybe it was thirty years ago,
maybe a little longer. Whenever eBay first came out, somebody
put on eBay the sixteen millimeter copy of the show.

Speaker 1 (55:08):
So the film, the film film itself.

Speaker 2 (55:10):
The actual film, and they put it on eBay. And
I had never used eBay, but I saw it there
and I thought, oh, wow, here's here's you know why
no one can see it because here's here. It is
right here, the film's right here. So so I bid
on it, and I think I remember bidding like twenty
dollars and I ended up getting it. Oh and and

(55:33):
I've never still have never seen it. We'll get it transferred.
You can take it to get transferred. I had it
transferred to to a DVD, but now I don't have
a DVD player. So that was about I think maybe
ten years ago I had a transfer.

Speaker 1 (55:51):
So now it's interesting because laptops and computers used to
have a DVD. Yeah, you just slip it in the
side and it would it would play.

Speaker 2 (56:01):
What's up with that?

Speaker 1 (56:02):
I don't know what's up with that? Anyway, we got
about a minute with that question. So you found it, right?

Speaker 3 (56:08):
So yeah, I found it. And John was asking if
we can identify it as because he bought a bag
of bulbs at Costco and they're blooming now and one
has eight small rose like white and extremely fragrant blossoms
on one stock. I like to buy more closest I

(56:30):
can come. Is something called summer daffodil or narcissus early cheer?
What is that? And who who might I call to
buy more?

Speaker 1 (56:40):
Okay, we're going to take a break and we're going
to come back and answer that, hopefully here on Guard
in America. Two more segments bis Talk Radio Facebook Live.
But thank you for joining us. Brian Main and John
Magnasco Tiger Palafox as usual taking a break. This is
Garden America. We have returned as promised here on guard
in America. A couple more segments to go, so again,
thank you for joining us, those that have been with
it since the beginning of those just tuning in.

Speaker 2 (57:02):
Got a question for you, Brian, I think I.

Speaker 1 (57:03):
Saw that from Kevin my favorite patio plan. Yeah, I
would have to say.

Speaker 2 (57:09):
That, you now, this is one that you favor over
the rest of your patio garden.

Speaker 1 (57:14):
That's like having kids, right, which which kid do you favor?

Speaker 2 (57:17):
Yeah? And then he wants another backstory behind it?

Speaker 1 (57:23):
Well, I guess there's a you know interesting, Is your
favorite necessarily the one that you pay more attention to?

Speaker 2 (57:30):
Or well, yeah, you would think you would, yeah for
a while.

Speaker 1 (57:34):
So I have plumeria, I've got the uh palms roses
hibiscus hibiscus kally yeah.

Speaker 2 (57:46):
Or does your favorite change is that whatever is in
coming in the bluemouth.

Speaker 1 (57:49):
And that's that's good too, you know the kalily I
think right now, huh, I would have to put up
there because I've never.

Speaker 2 (57:55):
Grown one, and it's doing really what.

Speaker 1 (57:57):
I've been very successful with it. I love the way looks.
I love the blooms. When the plumeri is in bloom,
I would favor that. Yeah, and then there's the roses.
So let's go with kalially right now.

Speaker 2 (58:10):
Okay, so it's seasonal.

Speaker 1 (58:12):
It is seasonal with me, exactly right.

Speaker 2 (58:15):
Brian has seasonal loves. Yes.

Speaker 3 (58:18):
So to address John John's question, it does sound like
what he's describing it would not be available right now.
You know, even if you went online and found a resource,
they're going.

Speaker 2 (58:33):
To say fall of this fall shipping.

Speaker 3 (58:35):
Yeah, they're not going to be able to have it
right now. And then in terms of the plant, you know,
we've talked about this. Somebody else asked, is a narciss
are narcissus daffodils? Yeah?

Speaker 2 (58:50):
Leonora wanted to know that.

Speaker 3 (58:52):
Yeah, and so.

Speaker 2 (58:54):
The answer is yes.

Speaker 3 (58:56):
The answers yes.

Speaker 2 (58:57):
And daffodils are narcissus, right, isn't nurse the the genus?

Speaker 1 (59:03):
Yeah?

Speaker 2 (59:04):
Ok?

Speaker 3 (59:04):
Correct? Yeah? And and then so so yeah, so it
sounds like that's the variety that you did get. It
makes sense that someone like Costco would have that. You
can't get it until the fall. But as far as
who you can get it from, obviously the easiest source
would be someone online. There's a lot of companies that
sell bulbs online. There's no guarantee of nursery or costco

(59:28):
would have it again in the fall if you wanted
to grow that one again. And we talked about this
was it last show about those where this year you
have to let it go completely dorm it again, so
you know you want to make sure that the leaves. Yeah,
so so John. When the when the flower finishes its

(59:53):
thing and the plant doesn't look all that great, you
can't touch it until it's all the way brown in
all the way falling down to the ground where it
looks like it's dead. Do not trim off that foliage.
Do not cut it back. Let the plant go through
the full cycle, because then you'll get new blossoms next
year and new plants.

Speaker 2 (01:00:11):
Yeah. I was going to say that plant will multiply itself. Yeah, eventually,
so you might want to market And after it has
turned brown and its storman, you could actually pull that
one out of the group and you wouldn't know where
it was.

Speaker 1 (01:00:26):
Tanya wants to know what color Mike keally is.

Speaker 2 (01:00:31):
Oh, we mentioned it was the one called green Goddess,
And it was called that because it looked like you
took a paint brush and painted green paint on the
tip of the bulb or the flour. Yeah. Yeah, so
it's white, it's white. Right then, just the end of
Streets Green.

Speaker 1 (01:00:54):
Was over. It's funny, we're still here.

Speaker 2 (01:00:58):
The uh we were talking about Narcissus being the genus
for Daffodil's paper whites and and all those plants, and
and the name comes from Brian you know, right, the
Greek story of Narcissus.

Speaker 1 (01:01:17):
Oh, well, we know the derivative is narcissistic.

Speaker 2 (01:01:21):
Well, narcissist. Being a narcissist comes from that.

Speaker 1 (01:01:24):
Story, right, thinking of yourself you come first.

Speaker 2 (01:01:27):
Right, And and Narcissus was the in the Greek story
looked at his reflection in a pond and fell in
love with him. So and and anyway, I guess that, well, no,
but somebody thought, wow, these bulbs are just as good
looking as Narcissus was. So that's where the term came from.

Speaker 1 (01:01:49):
Yeah. I think we took Greek mythology. I want to say,
was it ninth grade? I think really?

Speaker 2 (01:01:55):
Yeah, it seems like an odd course for high school.

Speaker 3 (01:01:59):
Specially classes you're in your mind we were special.

Speaker 1 (01:02:03):
Let me ask Let me ask you a Greek god question. Okay,
you know who Icarus was?

Speaker 3 (01:02:09):
I've heard the name before, but if you asked me
to recall him.

Speaker 1 (01:02:11):
Now, he flew too close to the sun. The wax
wings melted and he plummeted to earth.

Speaker 2 (01:02:17):
Yeah. Yeah, he had wings made of wax.

Speaker 3 (01:02:21):
That makes a lot of sense if you're flying to
the sun.

Speaker 2 (01:02:24):
Got too close, got too close to the sun.

Speaker 3 (01:02:27):
Yeah.

Speaker 1 (01:02:27):
Who is your favorite Greek god or hero? John?

Speaker 2 (01:02:31):
I always like Hercules.

Speaker 1 (01:02:33):
I thought I thought that you made more of an
aphrodite kind of a guy.

Speaker 2 (01:02:38):
For Diarty, it was okay.

Speaker 3 (01:02:39):
I feel like there's some really good ones that you know,
I mean, I can't recall one off the top of
my head right now. Yeah, yeah, but I but there's
some even really like good obscure ones, you know what
I mean, that like are kind of like a lot
of fun Achilles, yeah, or you know, just yea Achilles
was good, you know, just different funny ones.

Speaker 1 (01:02:58):
And will we get names, you know for things like
your Achilles? Heel like you injure that you're done.

Speaker 2 (01:03:04):
Who was the one that was I can't remember the
whole story about the race, but Nike.

Speaker 1 (01:03:13):
If she Greek god Nike, that's good.

Speaker 2 (01:03:16):
This was a woman and if she she had to
marry somebody if she lost this race. So she had
golden apples that she would throw during the race so
that the person she was racing against would stop to
pick him up. Familiar she didn't have to marry. Yeah,
I can't remember that. I remember the story, but not

(01:03:36):
the name.

Speaker 3 (01:03:37):
That's funny. Yeah, there's some great there's some great stories
with Greek characters in it that are fun. And if
you if you were to say which Greek you know
god or which character was your best, there's some.

Speaker 1 (01:03:49):
Fun one for Zeus.

Speaker 3 (01:03:51):
Yeah, just go for the top.

Speaker 1 (01:03:53):
For the top, top guy. I think there was a
cartoon back in the sixties, Hercules. Yeah, and then all
those zoo and all those Greek goddesses and gods were
in there, and they had Mount Olympus, and I was
fascinated as a kid.

Speaker 2 (01:04:06):
Frank I mentioned how there was a nice picture in
the newsletter of your green goddess Kala. Yes, so anyone
who gives you newsletter can can take a look at that.

Speaker 1 (01:04:15):
Yeah, I gotta trum it this weekend too. I gotta
do a little maintenance today out there. I've got a
couple of plants under the eves that I haven't watered. Yeah,
they're palms, They're okay, yeah, but the rubber plant needs
a little water, a little bit of water.

Speaker 2 (01:04:30):
It was Diana that was in the apple race.

Speaker 1 (01:04:33):
Oh, thank you. See this is why you have listeners
and viewers like that.

Speaker 2 (01:04:36):
Yeah, Lenarise says she's having a pain right now and
her achilles. Oh, sorry about that. And Veronica says, don't
don't forget Jason and the Argonauts.

Speaker 3 (01:04:52):
See that's yeah, yeah, some good ones.

Speaker 1 (01:04:56):
You know. It's interesting. I love it when we kind
of go off in a little tangent are listeners and
viewers follow us right along. Oh let me tell you
the name of this and this like Lemmings right right.

Speaker 3 (01:05:05):
Exactly, Like I like how you Veronica did, right. Guacamole
is always in season, and that's just the world we
live in nowadays, where we just assume everything is in season.

Speaker 1 (01:05:18):
You know, speaking of that, when we had Edlivlon a
month or so ago, and he was talking about because
I know Dana goes through this a lot. You know,
she'll buy you know, cuties little tomatoes one week and
well the next week they're not good. But it's the
same brand. And how come they you know, they vary
up and down. And ed talked about the weather, He
talked about the shipman. He talked about you can come.

Speaker 2 (01:05:39):
From the same Yeah, the same brand, but not the
same variety.

Speaker 1 (01:05:41):
Not the same variety, or just the conditions can affect
the way it tastes.

Speaker 2 (01:05:47):
Just like she sent you the store to buy an apple,
you know, who knows what you would come home?

Speaker 1 (01:05:53):
Yeah, make sure they're jazz apples, and you buy the
jazz and they don't take they taste mealy, Well, they're jazz,
that's what you wanted.

Speaker 2 (01:06:01):
It might be jazz out of season.

Speaker 1 (01:06:03):
Exactly, which gets Yeah, it's like blueberries.

Speaker 2 (01:06:07):
Yeah, there's different ones in different seasons. I'm getting spoiled
on those. The large extra large blueberries.

Speaker 1 (01:06:15):
Well yeah, the size of apples, well, not.

Speaker 2 (01:06:18):
Quite that big, but they're double or triple the size
of a regular.

Speaker 1 (01:06:22):
And then you kind of wonder, what how'd they get
that big? It's just a variety question everything.

Speaker 3 (01:06:32):
You think they're injecting it with water.

Speaker 2 (01:06:35):
Each berry.

Speaker 1 (01:06:37):
There was a bumper sticker back in the Stephanies. That
just said, questioned authority.

Speaker 3 (01:06:42):
That was it was a punk rock band or something
that made those or something did in it?

Speaker 1 (01:06:47):
Wasn't it like something?

Speaker 2 (01:06:50):
Question authority?

Speaker 1 (01:06:50):
And John's favorite group social Distortion.

Speaker 2 (01:06:53):
Yeah, my cousin had a band called isn't that a
pony at? A band called the Cement Flower?

Speaker 1 (01:07:09):
Okay, all right, we're got to take a break. All right,
one more segment, gang get it in. This is it?
Questions comments biz talk Radio. It is a guard in
America and will be after this break here on BizTalk
Radio and Facebook line all right, that said.

Speaker 2 (01:07:24):
Yeah, and Leonar went back, we weren't making fun of
the pain in your achilles. It's just the way that
it went in with our conversation, so exactly. So we
do hope that you feel better. And my wife has
been going through sciatica right now, which is just who
is Shannon?

Speaker 1 (01:07:41):
Well, I told you I've got it too. Yeah, it's
the worst now right now, it's okay, and all of
a sudden it'll flare up. You can't get in a
comfortable position.

Speaker 2 (01:07:49):
No, it's all nerves and there's nothing you can take
for it.

Speaker 1 (01:07:52):
Now, you could get injections and shots. Pain pills won't
do it. You can exercise and stretch. That will help temporarily.
But no, it's the worst. So I feel for Shannon.
Go home and share my pain.

Speaker 2 (01:08:02):
With She's had it for a month now, I might.
You can't even sleep.

Speaker 1 (01:08:06):
I bit of the doctor and they're like, like you said, like,
well what do you mean? Well, well you can try acupuncture.
You can try this.

Speaker 2 (01:08:12):
Can you sleep off and on?

Speaker 1 (01:08:15):
I have to get into a position, stretch it out
and then hopefully fall asleep.

Speaker 2 (01:08:19):
Yeah, she can't lay down. It's terrible, so she has
to sleep sitting up.

Speaker 1 (01:08:24):
It's terrible. Now, Veronica says, total sixties resistance against the man. Yes, absolutely,
And when else do they say it? They say, if
you remember the sixties, you didn't live through it.

Speaker 3 (01:08:36):
Okay, Paula, My Juliet grape tomato is just looking sad.

Speaker 2 (01:08:43):
Paula.

Speaker 3 (01:08:43):
We talk about this right now, We talk about this
during this time of year in the show, and I
know I should not grow a plant that long, but
love the year round crop. And you're right, it is
looking sad. But just embrace the idea. You have a tomato,
you know, you know, embrace the idea that the plant
is surviving and you know.

Speaker 2 (01:09:06):
No one else has tomatoes.

Speaker 3 (01:09:07):
Yeah, yeah, you're winning. It might be looking sad.

Speaker 2 (01:09:11):
You're winning exactly, well, used to do you need more?

Speaker 3 (01:09:14):
Friends on the East coast.

Speaker 2 (01:09:17):
Are dearly departed? Friend Steve Godo started a program in
southern California called Winter Tomatoes, and they were tomatoes that
you would plant in August and they would give you
fruit all the way through till January or February.

Speaker 1 (01:09:37):
Now remember that.

Speaker 2 (01:09:38):
Yeah, on those tomatoes. Though. What made them winter tomatoes
is that they would set fruit when nighttime temperatures were cold.
So even when the nighttime temperatures would go into the
thirties and forties, they would continue to fruit.

Speaker 3 (01:09:54):
Yeah, and they had a very short you know cycle,
where some of the other ones that you started in
the spring hat they needed that time, you know.

Speaker 2 (01:10:04):
Yeah. But just because it was a short season tomato
or an early tomato did not mean that it was right.
For instance, Early Girl. When we started that program, a
lot of people said, oh, well.

Speaker 3 (01:10:17):
Here's Early Girl, because it's makes sense.

Speaker 2 (01:10:20):
But Early Girl does not set fruit under cold conditions,
so that was not a winner. Tomato and Brian, you
remember that most of the names of those tomatoes.

Speaker 1 (01:10:29):
Were all cold seasons.

Speaker 2 (01:10:31):
Yeah, Russia, Yeah, you had Manitoba names that, Siberia, yeah,
ice Cap.

Speaker 1 (01:10:44):
Yeah, that good name.

Speaker 2 (01:10:47):
I don't know there was you know, Greenland's been in
the news lately and there was a tomato called Arctic.
There were several Arctic tomatoes are but I think it
was called Arctic sub plenty and it was developed by
the Navy to feed people, feed the soldiers in Greenland

(01:11:13):
during the winter, well during during I guess their winter
would be your lune during.

Speaker 1 (01:11:18):
The winter during every day.

Speaker 3 (01:11:19):
Yeah, I know you've talked about the value of purple
tomatoes with the antioxidants and anthocyanins, cys and all that.
What is the value of a red tomato, Like, what
is its what is its number one nutrient?

Speaker 1 (01:11:38):
Is it lycopene?

Speaker 2 (01:11:39):
John, Well, lycopene is the the nutrient that's in it.

Speaker 3 (01:11:45):
That is that like something super valuable to us that
you know, like you just said, trying to grow navyes,
trying to grow them to produce something for people to eat,
the use.

Speaker 2 (01:11:54):
Of vitamin C and and different vitamins.

Speaker 3 (01:11:57):
From those, right, Okay, because you know, like there's no
point in learning how to grow a celery somewhere like
you know what I mean, like any nutrients in That's
what I'm saying. Negative, nobody's developing, you know, Salary, Oh,
I know this show is about to wrap up, But
I went to a crazy dive on the story of
a carrot because there was this whole woman that came

(01:12:21):
out and she's some like vegan activist and how nobody
should eat a carrot? Do you know the story of carrots?
Queen Ann's lace.

Speaker 2 (01:12:31):
I know Queen Anne's lace is in the carrot family.

Speaker 3 (01:12:33):
Correct, So she connected that we as a society the
carrots only two hundred years old she established, and we
as a psychich correct, But we created the carrot from
Queen Ann's lace. That's what her connection was, and that
we created this carrot. And Queen Ann's lace was a

(01:12:54):
natural morning after pill. It was a natural like birth
control pill kind of a thing. As this is what
she says, and she would never let her kid or
family eat this because of its nation. Anyways, it's not
connected at all in that way. But so I took
a deep dive into where carrots came from. And number
one only two hundred years Yeah, number one carrots are

(01:13:16):
way older than that they are, and they never they
weren't created by people. You know, there's documents in like
China and Egypt with carrots, like you know what I mean.
So anyways, but it was just it was just a
crazy deep dive. If you ever have a chance, look
into the story of the carrot, because there's a lot
of there's a lot of weird twist and turns of

(01:13:37):
the carrot and who created and why they created it
and you know all this.

Speaker 1 (01:13:41):
But now your deep dive was factual. Yeah yeah, yeah,
her hers, Like.

Speaker 3 (01:13:47):
I mean, it's a very loose connection, right, yes, Like
John mentioned, they are connected just like a tomato and
night shade.

Speaker 2 (01:13:54):
Well it was about about two hundred years ago they
became orange, So maybe that's what she was thinking of.

Speaker 3 (01:14:00):
Right, I think that's where she created her connection. But
like we're saying, that's no, no, no, yeah.

Speaker 2 (01:14:05):
That's the trouble with you know, googling things and getting
an AI description now, right, is that oftentimes it's just
completely wrong.

Speaker 1 (01:14:13):
Yeah, well I know it's not wrong. We have to
say goodbye, adio, sayonara, I've dircy, it's time to go.
Oh now we're off. Next week.
