## Resource

They’re BAAAAAAAK! Season II kicks off today — WELCOME if you’re new and welcome back if you’re not! Even Leslie and Marianne have been missing the weekly mix of seasonal relevance and irreverence — and a chance to raise a glass in support of our gardening audience all over the world who are dedicated to the proposition that gardening shouldn’t be boring. The Garden Mixer is bringing you one of those gardeners today — Rochelle Greayer , the new editor of The American Horticultural Society’s American Gardener Magazine. Are you an AHS member? We hope you will be by the end of this episode. In a country of over 340 million people that covers over 3.7 million square miles of extremely confusing but necessarily detailed eco-regions, what exactly does it mean to be an American Gardener? Are the characteristics of an American Garden as easy to recognize as those of a British, Italian or French Garden? What are we adding to the conversation around gardening, and where are we owning it? And why does the RHS get all the good press anyway? July 2026 marks a big birthday for this country of gardeners — perhaps it’s time to take the microphone back and celebrate our strengths. We’re indulging our revolutionary tendencies today, on the Season II kickoff of The Garden Mixer! ___________________ Be sure to hit the subscribe button so we can keep you smiling while you hit the mess [your garden] out there.
