Today we celebrate the first snow of 1855 on Walden Pond.

We'll also learn about the young woman who became an emblem for a raisin company.

We'll remember the gardener spy who discovered photographer in the last decades of his life.

We hear a verse of flowers for a poet's dead friend.

We Grow That Garden Library™ with a book that takes us through 100 gardens to help us understand the history of landscape design.
