## Resource

In this episode, Ken and Lisa Watters-Lain of Watters Garden Center in Prescott discuss choosing between aspen and birch trees. Aspens and birches can both bring beauty and character to a Central Highlands landscape, but deciding between them isn’t always easy. They'll compare the two trees and explain what gardeners should consider before choosing one for their yard. Tune in if you’re weighing a new tree or troubleshooting summer garden problems!
