Welcome to our weekly podcast with longtime Anchorage Daily News gardening writer and author Jeff Lowenfels and co-host Jonathan White, which accompanies Jeff's weekly ADN gardening column and his popular series of books.
In this week's episode, Jeff and Jonathan give you the lowdown on how to plant and grow different types of beans and peas.
Jeff begins by talking about the history of sweet peas, highlighting their delightful fragrance, vibrant color, and ease of cultivation.
They then compared sweet peas to snap peas, with Jeff emphasizing the importance of picking and depicting the flowers.
After the break, Jonathan will share his experience using wildflower seed kits to create a lush meadow in his garden.
