Plant enthusiast alert:
PBS television will be presenting the compelling show, the “Botany of Desire” tonight, Thursday, Oct. 29 (check for time in your local listing).
“The program shows how four familiar species (the apple, the tulip, marijuana and the potato) evolved to satisfy our yearnings for sweetness, beauty, intoxication and control.”
The show is based on award winning author, Michael Pollan’s book of the same name.
Those sneaky plants!
You can watch a special interview with Michael Pollan on my Garden World Report channel today! Enjoy.
Sunday night, Nov. 1, I will be posting a new Garden World Report show, “The Plantanista!” focus on plant collectors from all over the world! I invite you to watch and catch up on what is going on in the wonderful world of gardening.

Hey Shirley!
Thanks for this. I hadn’t seen this before. I’ll be most certain to catch this!
This is a great post.. Very informative… I can see that you put a lot of hard work on your every post that’s why I think I’d come here more often. Keep it up! By the way, you can also drop by my blogs. They’re about Vegetable Gardening and Composting. I’m sure you’d find my blogs helpful too.
Great to hear from you Nancy! Yes, I will be watching as well.
Shirley
I’ve seen the promos for this, Shirley — thanks for the reminder! Looks like a must-see!
