Summary

No new episode this week, but I revisit an episode from the On The Ledge archive, published back in 2017… I talk to people about their long-lived houseplants, from an Aspidistra to a cactus in a pickle jar.

0:00.0	Welcome one and all. It's on the ledge podcast, the podcast that puts houseplants center stage.
0:24.8	I'm your host, Jane Perone.
0:29.7	And in this bonus episode, I'm digging deep into the On the Ledge archives to bring you episode
0:36.5	episode 26 about old house plants.
0:44.3	Was your festive season magnificent or miserable? Or maybe, for most of us, maybe a mix of the two.
0:53.3	Well, on the ledge trundles on.

1:46.1	who you may remember from other episodes of the show. Unfortunately, he passed away recently, which was a real loss. He was an amazing
1:52.1	Canadian garden writer and horticulturist and a huge house plant expert and a delightful man.
1:59.6	So I wanted to hear his section on Christmas cacti again because
2:05.2	it just brought me great joy. So I hope you enjoy this episode. If you want to access the other 49
2:12.3	very early episodes of the show, you can do so by becoming a patron details in the show notes on how to do
2:18.8	that. But I'm going to leave you with Old Me. This dates from sometime in 2017, I think. So I hope
