A New Way to Watch Virginia Home Grown

Hosted by Richard Nunnally and Amy Williams, Season 12 of the popular gardening show premieres on Tuesday, March 27 at 8:00 p.m. on WCVE PBS (Richmond) and WHTJ PBS (Charlottesville). With the start of the new season, a new way to watch Virginia Home Grown begins as well – a live web stream.

The live stream will be available starting at 8:00 p.m. – the same time as the TV broadcast. Simply point your web browser on your computer, laptop, tablet or smartphone to ideastations.org/vhglive and enjoy Virginia Home Grown where ever you may be.

In this first episode of the new season, Richard takes us along on a visit to Lewis Ginter Botanical Garden to meet the new Director of Horticulture and to learn about Tropical Plants. Then we find out about Interior Plantscapes when Amy visits with Buckingham Greenery at the University of Virginia. Peggy Singlemann of Maymont shares her Plant of the Month, the Japanese flowering apricot (Prunus mume).

And remember – no matter how you decide to watch – you’ll be able to interact with the experts when you call or email your questions during the show.
