Join Emma the Space Gardener as she explores gardening on Earth… and beyond! In this episode, Emma talks to houseplant expert Jane Perrone about which plants she would take into space.
Jane’s houseplant podcast is On the Ledge, and she’s crowdfunding her new book – Legends of the Leaf – via Unbound. The tiny tomato she mentions that’s perfect for space gardeners (and windowsills on Earth) is the House Tomato from Real Seeds. Show patrons can access the ‘directors cut’ version of the interview via Patreon.
Gardeners of the Galaxy: Episode 7 script
Hello and welcome to episode seven of Gardeners of the Galaxy, a podcast for all of the sentient beings in the Universe who have a passion for plants. I am Emma the Space Gardener, and I will be your host as we explore gardening on Earth… and beyond!
In episode three I talked a little bit about houseplants in space, and in episode five John Kiss mentioned that astronauts love plant experiments, and that there are psychological benefits to growing plants in space. So I am thrilled to have Jane Perrone on the show today. Jane is the host of the On The Ledge podcast, and truly deserves the title Doyenne of Houseplants.
