Today's show came out of a phone conversation that Ken Druse and I were having the other day, when I found myself confessing to him that I'd let things in my containers get, shall we say, a tad overgrown this season without the pressure of any visitors and tours to keep me in line. And how I was finally trying to get them back into shape for the rest of the season by pinching things. 

And just for fun, how I've been rooting some of the pinched-off bits in little jars of water. So all that's to say, Ken and I talked about a little midsummer rejuvenation—and also some of the less-obvious positive effects that can yield. Ken is author of 20 garden books, including one on plant propagation called “Making More Plants.”
