| 0:00.0 | Hello and welcome to On the Ledge podcast. I'm your host, Jane Perrone. |
| 0:20.7 | And in this week's show, I'm launching the |
| 0:24.0 | solo. Your opportunity to grow houseplants from seed. And we talk to Queen of the Anthuriums. |
| 0:32.9 | Gemma Hay. Well, that's not what she calls herself. I've just given her that title because I think |
| 0:37.3 | she deserves it. |
| 0:38.7 | Plus, I answer a question about a mystery pest. |
| 0:45.7 | Hello, it is so good to be here. And yes, that is the first pun of the episode because the sew-along is live. So I'm going to start this |
| 0:56.7 | episode by talking about what my annual project to get you all sewing house plant seeds involves, |
| 1:04.2 | how you can get going with the On the Ledge Sewalong and everything you need to know. |
| 1:08.2 | And then we'll get on to my interview with the lovely Gemma Hay, |
| 1:12.2 | who is also known as the plant parlour, to find out everything we need to know about growing |

| 1:30.0 | Before that, a couple of heads up about things I'm doing. I mentioned this in the previous episode, |
| 1:35.5 | but just to repeat, Morven Spring Festival in Worcestershire in the UK, it's happening on May |
| 1:43.8 | the 11th and 12th. Well, that's when I'm there anyway. |
| 1:46.8 | There's a huge house plant area at this show. There's a whole house plant festival, in fact. |
| 1:53.0 | There's going to be a live podcast recording by me. I'm doing a talk. Check out the show notes for |
| 1:57.5 | details on that. Also, if you are in the London area or you can get there |
| 2:01.8 | for April the 23rd, I am doing a chat with Matthew Potage, fellow house plant enthusiast |
| 2:10.2 | and former Wisley curator about all things indoor gardening. Again, check the show notes for details on that one. I'd love to |
| 2:19.8 | see some listeners there. If you are new to the show, maybe you've not heard of the On the |
| 2:31.3 | ledge so long. So let me just fill you in. I put a reel on |
