Good morning and happy February from all of us here at Bob Tanem In The Garden with Edie Tanem...!  We are joined this morning by Jeff Harris of the San Francisco Orchid Society, here to talk up the 2026 Orchid Exposition he'll be presiding over at the SF County Fair building in Golden Gate Park, starting Thursday Feb. 26 and running through Sunday March 1.   Jeff reminded us of just how fabulous an event this is for anyone interested in orchids; whether seeing the best on display or actually buying plants at the marketplace they include at the event.  And as Jeff further pointed out, this is a terrific time of year to take a walk among some of the other park attractions that are right there, as well as the area's abundant walk-up restaurants. In the second half of the show we took calls from our live audience; this podcast is a repeat of the actual broadcast at 9:00 local time in San Francisco on 810 KSFO; the musical interludes and the bulk of the adverts have been lifted out for your protection.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

It's America's happiest gardening show, Bob Tanem In The Garden with Edie Tanem.  We broadcast live on 810 am KSFO on Sunday mornings at 9:00; sometimes we have a guest but some days -- today, for example --we just take calls and talk about stuff in, around and for the garden. Concerned about recent cold snaps?  The tip of the day came from caller Neil at the very end of the show, who suggested "heat tape" -- a product originally designed for use to prevent pipes from freezing, it plugs in to 110 power and comes on automatically at 38° F, and shuts off at 40° F.  Neil says you can put it at the base of trees or wherever you're concerned about frost damage.  Of course Edie reiterated Bob's old trick of using incandescent holiday light strings for a similar purpose, though those are getting harder to find; LEDs don't produce enough heat to help.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Our guest this morning on Bob Tanem In The Garden with Edie Tanem is Sandra Mao -- author of the just published book, Vibrant Harvest: Cultivating a Kaleidoscope of Colors in Your Vegetable Garden with Heirlooms, Modern Hybrids, and More.   This book is a refreshing approach to gardening; it's container-garden friendly and emphasizes some of the less commonly planted varieties -- promoting an "eat the rainbow" approach to diet and fresh home grown produce. This podcast is a replay of the original broadcast live on 810 KSFO; we're live on the air in San Francisco and online at KSFO.com each Sunday morning from 9 until 10.  This podcast edition has been lightly edited to remove music and most advertising.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
