Our Top 5 Favorite Flowering Perennials

Grow Flowers Like Grandma

Take a trip down memory lane with us this week as we remember all the lovely flowers our grandmas used to grow.  Flowers make us feel and remember special moments in our lives unlike anything else.   Many of these "Grandma Flowers" are making huge comebacks in cottage gardens everywhere, and they deserve to be talked about.   The Gals love a good Grandma Flower, and we hope to expand your flower garden palette after listening to this episode, too!   Get your lists ready because you're going to want to write some of these down for your next trip to the garden center. Do it for you.  Do it for the birds and butterflies.  Do it for grandma.  We hope you enjoy listening to this episode as much as we enjoyed recording it. https://www.instagram.com/thegalswhogrow/

Our Favorite Gap Flowers & Foliage

Have you ever looked around after that first beautiful flush of peonies and roses and longed to see more blooming?  That gap between the spring showstoppers and summer annuals can be a long one, so this week the Gals are sharing their favorite gap flowers and foliage to help keep your yard interesting and your heart happy while you wait for that summer color to arrive.   They're also sharing a little bit about how to make your blooming perennials a little more sturdy throughout the season by either giving them a good prune, a nice little trim, or the infamous Chelsea chop.  (We were a little confused about the last one at first, but we've got it now). We hope you add a few more new favorites to your "must grow" list after this week's episode! https://www.instagram.com/thegalswhogrow/
