Create Your Own Alpine Trough Garden

Thursday, June 13, 6:30-9 p.m.

306 Mount Scio Rd., St. John's

The Newfoundland climate is very well-suited for alpine plants, and many gardeners have constructed some fine rock garden examples with large boulders on sloped terrains. But not all alpines require the hard work and space needed to grow these remarkable plants. In this class, you will construct your very own alpine trough, and learn about the correct soil, site, and plant selection to adorn your creation. These “mini rock gardens” make perfect garden features and come out large on the smallest deck or the grandest patio.

Tickets are $80+HST and nonrefundable.

Presented by Memorial University Botanical Garden
