Iris and peonies create traffic-stopping effect

This week, “Home and Away,” with host Cathy Hamilton, right, features Mary Lou Humphrey’s garden. A profusion of award-winning peonies and iris stop traffic in front of her home as passersby stop to gawk at the breathtaking display. Viewers will learn about the different varieties of both flowers and find out how easy they are to grow.

Sunrise Garden Center provides a primer on shade-loving hydrangeas.

A new show airs at 6:30 p.m. each Monday on Sunflower Broadband Channel 6 and repeats at 9 p.m. and 10:30 p.m. The show is also broadcast at 9 p.m. Tuesday-Friday and 9 a.m. Sunday.
