DON'T EAT THOSE CHOCOLATE RAISINS. 

Its that time of year that chocolate raisins, aka Bunny Poop, comes into focus horticulturally. The largest bunny of them all appears this weekend - The EASTER BUNNY.

Jack, Lynne and Matt McFarland detail what Easter means to their family.  Jack and Lynne have an especially important event tied to the Easter weekend. 

The tree that gives chocolate is the first in line at the horticultural party. The TGS trio highlight its history. 

The "midge fly" has a major role in chocolate and Matt asserts that Easter's prototypical creature needs to be reassessed. 

Easter and Australia is discussed.  What is a Nelly White? Why are we talking about Komodo dragons?

Where are Easter Lily's grown? How do you care for them when they find their way into your home?  Lynne details the how-to.

A brand new gadget could be the key to perfect tropical plant watering.

Lynne eats.  Matt vomits. 

Forced air and radiators in homes tie into the care of your Easter plants. 

Chrysanthemum, poinsettias, deciduous trees and soya beans factor into a discussion. 

A brand new hydrangea variety is created on the fly.  Speaking of hydrangeas, getting all sciency with their bloom colour caps the show off.

How do you "harden off" an easter hydrangea to allow it to be transplanted into your flower beds.

Can you plant dahlia bulbs right now?
