New Garden World Report show this week!

If you buy regional garden magazines you are probably getting useful information for your garden.

I want to encourage you to step outside of your comfort zone and consider a regional magazines that doesn’t have your city name on it.

Instead, focus on your garden zone and select a magazine that shares your same zone. It may be in a different state, or a different country!

That’s what I do.

For instance, I garden in Los Angeles but I find relevant information for my garden in the “Guru” magazine from Australia. My zone 10 garden is similar to their “zone 3.”

I learn about beautiful Australian plant and trees that will thrive in my dry, hot garden. You get the picture.

This week’s new Garden World Report show features exciting, information-filled magazines for you to consider!

In addition to this, the show explores Gardenology.org, a “wikipedia for plants!” Have you heard of it?

It’s a database of plants that you can add to and edit as a collaborative effort with others.

There’s a new online retailer called the OpenSky project that sets  up “shopkeepers” from around the web who are experts in their field!

Social media expert, Jean Ann VK reports on the OpenSky concept that promises to make your online shopping for garden products a lot more personal.

I’m excited to present our first contributor from Bangladesh! Tarek Rahman will lead us on a tour of one of the gardens he created in Dhaka.

Tarek says that the landscape industry is in it’s infancy and he’s one of the few landscape designers working in Bangladesh.

Watch his segment.

Enjoy the show and “thank you” to all the international contributors!
