It's March at Monticello and the natural world is starting to wake up. Bloodroot, Lenten rose, hyacinths, peach and pear trees are all in bloom. As Jefferson put it, "Spring" makes "a paradise of our country." In this episode of "A Rich Spot of Earth," we talk about two of Jefferson's granddaughters who helped him in the garden and focus on a peculiar planting scheme described by Jefferson and implemented at his retreat home, Poplar Forest. Featuring Peggy Cornett, Curator of Plants; Michael Tricomi, Manager and Curator of Historic Gardens; Debbie Donley, Flower Gardener; and Robert Dowell, Senior Nursery Associate at the Thomas Jefferson Center Historic Plants.
