Does the thought of Botany scare you? Well, fear not!

This week on In the Garden with UC Master Gardeners, our show is called “A Botanist's/Horticulturist's Wisdom for the Home Gardener”.

KUCI Host and UC Master Gardener Dece Morgan took a drive over to Newport Beach and Roger's Gardens and talked to Lynn Hillman, Horticulturist and Landscape Designer (and Botanist!). One of topics discussed is what are the best choices in plant material that will attract the classic Monarch butterflies to your garden. What do Monarchs love to chow down on?! Tune in and say to yourself by the end “Now that wasn't so bad!”
