Your Podcast had instigated me to put my top 5 in the "Recommendations". You guys did a great job and I'm looking forward to the future Podcasts.

Thank you Joanne!

A great new feature! I like it.

I am on a dial-up system but I listened to about 17 minutes of the podcast and enjoyed it ! It would take a couple minutes to load about 5 minutes of talk then do it again with each 5 minute section.

I have Christmas cactus blooming now so your mention of it will get me to check out that forum. I have also grown a couple of Poinsettia's for about 3 years and they did color back up for me so now I need to check that forum as well !

Me too, great new feature!
And thanks about the Apple article, too.

"Mountain twang," Trish?
That'll be my new byline: 'I write with a mountain twang.'

I enjoyed every minute of this new podcast feature.
Many of the Top Five x 2 I have purchased from and have been very happy with the results.

This is going to be such a useful feature. I now have a couple new online seed/plant companies to check out.

I have done potatoes in the manner you are doing Trish, it was a great success.

The two of you have got my brain going, planning what I will do for this years vegetable garden.

All I got was music.

There is a musical introduction.

Guess I didn't wait too long.

I'll try it again.

Thanks Trish!

I just got done listening to it and I enjoyed every minute of it! I'm looking forward to each new podcast! Great new feature!

Great job Dave and Trish!

Thanks for taking your time to do it!

I liked the very first podcast and really look forward to the ensuing issues!

I laughed at the discussion regarding the proper pronunciation of the words Poinsettia and Apricot. My family is from the south and I've always pronounced Poinsettia with a silent i (Poinsetta), and Apricot as App-ri-cot ... but one of my sisters pronounces it A-pri-cot like Trish does.

That discussion got me to thinking so I decided to google. I landed on the Merriam-Webster site which shows Poinsettia pronounced (Poin sett ia), and the word Apricot as App ri cot. So, it looks like Trish was correct with her way of saying Poinsettia and Dave was right with his way of saying Apricot. LOL ... I really think we are all correct though ... different accents and dialects are what make us all such a wonderful, fun and diverse group.

My holiday cactus are still blooming away which gives some cheer on this gray, dreary and chilly (59ºF) day, but we are due for some much needed rain the next couple of days so I won't complain.

Happy New Year everyone!

That's fun, Lin!
The two of us have a good time with "pecan" too.

I pronounce that one Pee-kahn ... but most other southerners I know pronounce it Pee-can.

Nice job, Dave and Trish. The little guy babbling in the background really seemed to want to offer his opinions. Cute touch!

But, are you sure you guys are married? When Trish mentioned a seed company and Dave commented "Huh, I never heard of it", it didn't sound like a married couple who garden together on the same farm. It sounded like 2 strangers striking up a conversation at a garden center.

Karen

We do have his and hers gardens! And lots of stuff gets ordered around here without the knowledge of the other person.

I'm glad you liked the little voice. He said "bye bye" at the very very end.

Great new avatar, Dave. I wondered which of the little ones was helping with the podcast.

Karen- there's quite a pause from me after he said that. My mouth was literally open
I'm chalking it up to brain block.

I loved hearing the little big guy babbling in the background ... and his cute little "Bye Bye" at the end!

regarding Dave's "Brain Block", I can sure relate ... but, Dave's so young!

I still don't remember the company. I guess I had to make room in my brain for other stuff, and that was a casualty!

I'm going to steal your phrase: "I had to make room in my brain for other stuff".

Really ... I need that one!
