Gardening has always been core to the HGTV brand. After all, it’s in our name. From when we first planted the seed of a new cable network in 1994, to the global brand we’ve grown to be today, we’ve stayed true to our gardening roots. And while trends may have shifted on television shows, gardening has never been more in demand online.
