    Here we go with another edition of our fun little garden show: Bob Tanem In The Garden with Edie Tanem, live on the air at 810 KSFO and streaming at KSFO.com every Sunday at 9:00, and here on demand as a podcast!

    Today we had guest Cal Agrifolia of the Davey Tree Experts company; Cal is a certified arborist and long time employee of one of the south bay Davey Tree offices. Cal's job is to go around and evaluate peoples' tree situations and figure out the best solution, so there was no shortage of ideas and information about preparing for upcoming El Niño storms that are widely predicted. We like to have Cal on throughout the year as the seasons change, and tree needs can become pressing.

    Our Guest this morning on Bob Tanem In The Garden with Edie Tanem was Matt Mattus, director of Horticulture for the American Horticultural Society. The Society has been publishing a series of "The Essential Guide" books, and this morning Edie is clutching a new (but soon to be tattered) copy of The Essential Guide to Plant Propagation. Edie likes this book, and we had a fun interview for the whole hour on the show this morning. Other books in the series include The Essential Guide to Organic Vegetable Gardening and The Essential Guide to Ecological Gardening, plus The Essential Guide to Perennial Gardening, with more on the way. The books are attributed to The American Horticultural Society, rather than any particular author or editor.

    Our program is heard live on 810 KSFO and on KSFO.com each Sunday morning at 9:00 local time. This podcast is the on-demand playback of that same show, minus musical interludes and most advertising.

    Our guest on Bob Tanem In The Garden with Edie Tanem this morning is Saxon Holt, renowned garden photographer and subject expert on "summer dry" gardening, e.g., the type we have around the San Francisco Bay Area, for the most part.

    https://www.summer-dry.com - the most current of the websites

    https://www.photobotanic.com - beautiful garden photography across many years

    https://saxonholt.com - the authors' personal website and blog
