Description

Throughout 2026 (and possibly beyond), host Bill Calkins will catch up with different people in the professional horticulture space and find out a little bit about their careers, passions, journeys in the world of plants and much more. Bill sent each guest a list of 12 questions and they picked four to answer and discuss.

This episode, he’s joined by Diane Blazek, Executive Director at All-America Selections and National Garden Bureau.

Here are the four questions Diane selected:

Q: How do you explain our industry to strangers, friends, family?

Q: Do you have a morning or evening routine you’d like to share with the listeners? Why do you do this?

Q: What’s something about professional horticulture that annoys you and how would you change it?

Q: What are three tools you couldn’t live without or couldn’t do your job without. (This can be hand tools, technology, etc.)
