On January 19th, 2015 the Bowen Island Garden Club welcomes Janis Matson who will give a presentation on ground covers and vines. Janis is the owner and operator of Shoreline Landscape Design Ltd. in Vancouver, BC. Janis has a diploma in landscape and horticultural design, and a floral design and arborist certificate and extensive experience working in the landscaping business. She is also an educator in the horticultural apprenticeship program at Kwantlen Polytechnic University and an instructor at Van Dusen Botanical Gardens. Her presentation will focus on the many uses of vines and ground covers. She will introduce us to the many design possibilities that these types of plants can help us achieve in our gardens. She will touch on what plants to pick for a desired effect, for particular spaces and for problem areas in a garden. And lastly, she will discuss the management of these plants, their growth patterns and pruning requirements.
