The Gestalt Gardener — Games & Hobbies
The Gestalt Gardener

Each week, horticulturalist Felder Rushing shares stories, answers questions and just talks gardening. Of course, you’ll hear a bit of “cheesy music” in every program and you might hear a bad joke or two as well. The Gestalt Gardener is a long-time favorite on MPB Think Radio, due in no small part to Felder’s laid-back, your-neighbors-might-talk-but-so-what approach to gardening.

Email Felder anytime at garden@mpbonline.org and listen Friday mornings at 9 and Saturday mornings at 10 to The Gestalt Gardener on MPB Think Radio. And in the meantime, as Felder says, get out and get dirty.

The Gestalt Gardener: Weird Moss Feb 28, 2020

Show notes

Every episode of the Gestalt Gardener, Felder reminds us to cherish the small things and do not take things to seriously. On this show he answers some pretty peculiar southern gardening questions, covering everything from satsuma trees to unidentifiable moss. Also he talks about his latest urban forging trip and where he gets his crabapples.

Not one to back down from a challenge Felder also knows when to bow out before handing out some bad advice. If you want to pick Felder's brain you can always email him at Garden@mpbonline.org.

The Gestalt Gardener: Pick Me Up Jan 24, 2020

As we approach the end of January, Felder is still giving advice about what to do during this lull time in your garden. The weather is unpredictable (in true Mississippi fashion) and many people are in need of a pick me up. So let this garden party be the ray of sunshine to peak through the curtains of winter.

The Gestalt Gardener: So-so January Jan 17, 2020

Today listeners have questions about magnolia trees, raised beds, boxwoods, and more. January is a lull time for the garden but there are still things you can do. Also the ear worm that Felder has for his cheesy tune is something that will definitely have you scratching your ears. Let's get dirty!
