Victory Garden


Hello Spring Watchers,

Traveling around NewEngland to the Flower Shows, I have learned thatg 
theVictory Garden (on PBS) has coming a complete replacement of cast.

Roger Swain is gone, Russell Morash the producer is gone, Marion the chef is 
gone and all are replaced by some landscaper who wrote a book emtitled "The 
New Traditional Gardener", author and new host Michael Weishan.

Mr. Weishan is a landscaper and not a horticulturist.  We need the Julia 
Child of Horiticulture, a plant person or another (and the nearly last) 
program with some intelligence is off TV.

Everyone write to WGBH, Boston and ask for a real Horticlturist host or that 
is the last PBS garden program aimed at true gardeners. Two on HGTV are 
always in repeat, Journal (Canadian) and Diary ( uneven) may also bite the 
dust.

Do we want clowns and elementary demonstrations.  Write to WGBH and ask for a 
Crockett type program.  He broke gound on the PGB Victory Garden and has not 
been equalled.  Alas!
