On November 17, the Bowen Island Garden Club welcomes Paul Spriggs. Spriggs will give a presentation about rock gardening highlighting a new style of called crevice gardening.
Spriggs has been the owner and operator of a landscaping company in Victoria for 25 years. He is also an avid plant explorer and mountaineer. Over the years he has melded his love of gardens with his love of the mountains and become a rock gardener. Paul’s specialty within the world of rock gardens is a style of gardening called crevice gardens. One of his mentors is Mr. Zdenek Zvolanek of the Czech Republic who is one of the innovators of this style of gardens. Together they have worked at building several gardens and in conducting workshops in this art form. Rock gardens and their plants are Paul’s passion and he loves to share his knowledge and showcase this very different world of gardening. Paul will also be bringing plants that are ideal examples for crevice gardens.
Please join us at the Gallery at Artisan Square on November 17, 2014 at 1 PM. Everyone is welcome.
