episode 26: 28 - Southern Bliss: The Artistry and Love of Rodney & Charlie Clemons
In today's episode, Kevin interviewed Rodney and Charlie Clemons at their bonsai nursery in Georgia. Rodney is well known online as a specialist in Boxwoods, but less well known is the story of his wife Charlie who is an accomplished bonsai artist in her own right. Here they share their intertwined story.
The video version is available here.
Show notes, relevant pictures, and links are available here. See you in the next episode!
