On the next "Gardening in Georgia," host Walter Reeves will show how to grow "Wondermums." And you get two chances, Aug. 30 and Sept. 2, to see the show on Georgia Public Television.

Reeves will visit Parker Andes, who shows how Callaway Gardens grows their signature, cascading, 6-foot-long chrysanthemum displays.

Then Reeves will demonstrates how to use things from your medicine cabinet to control an outbreak of mealybugs on a coleus.

Finally, the show calls on Callaway Gardens' Sherlock Holmes. Hank Bruno accompanies Reeves on an investigation of the mysterious disease that kills rhododendrons and azaleas.
