In this episode of The HOME Show, HOME publisher Trish Roth, HOME editor Jen Redmond and co-host Rich Roth celebrate the launch of the Spring 2026 issue of HOME magazine, featuring a cover so vibrant it looks “good enough to eat”. We dive into the unofficial “Color Issue,” exploring how color analysis can transform both your wardrobe and your living space.
Featured Guests:
Jake Nuckols (Phantom Screens of Central Virginia): Discover the “disappearing” screen technology that seamlessly blends indoor and outdoor living. Jake explains how these low-profile, motorized, and manual screens protect your home from bugs and UV rays without obstructing your view.
Matthew Weltz (Root & Leaf): Meet the “Tree Doctor.” Matthew discusses the emotional connection we have with our landscape and provides expert advice on “well-visits” for trees, the science of deep root fertilization, and the critical “surgery analogy” for pruning.
Plus: We announce a massive giveaway for Historic Garden Day in Lynchburg! Tune in to find out how you can win a pair of tickets to tour some of the area’s most beautiful historic homes and gardens on April 21st.
