We meet a couple whose landscape goal was to incorporate plants from their past, and accentuate the backyard view of the Red River. We visit Red Thread Farm in Franklin TN to discuss the practices they employ for optimum soil health. Protecting your plant investment over the winter months is important, so we look at a variety of plant types and give advice about steps to keeping them long term.
