Show Notes
Sometimes they're so perfect, it's hard to believe they're real - In this week's Talking Dirty podcast it's ALL about Auriculas as grower Jane-Ann Walton explains the different types and how to grow these Diva plants. From compost mixes, to dealing with pests like root aphid and red spider mite, the best pots to use, overwintering, where to start if you're a beginner and even helpful tools - Jane-Ann bring over thirty years experience to the podcast. Plus she wows Alan Gray and Thordis with some stunning varieties.
And it's not quite all Auriculas. The trio can't stop themselves getting carried away with a few other horticultural treasures as well, as the plant list shows!
