Join us for an exclusive tour of the Agave Gardens in Antigua with the incredible Barbara Japal, RHS Chelsea Medal winner and President of the Antigua & Barbuda Horticultural Society in the tropical climates of the Caribbean.
In this episode, Barbara shares the "proper" way to cultivate a self-sustaining tropical garden in a dry climate. We dive deep into the world of wild medicinal herbs—from the surprising (and slightly shocking!) history of the "pisser bed" leaf to the healing powers of the Yellow Balsam and the Marzipan-scented tea vine.
We also get a rare look inside Antigua’s only Seed Bank, a vital resource for preserving local biodiversity against natural disasters. If you’ve ever wondered how to save your own seeds or why the Antigua Black Pineapple nearly went extinct, you won’t want to miss this.
