Please note this is the third Thursday of the month. Jiri will talk about the design and cultivation of alpines in various types of rock gardens, and also about his experiences with Daphnea and Saxifrages, which are good plants for our local gardens. Jiri is a key organizer of the 2016 Czech Rock Garden Conference in May 2017 and an active member of several rocks gardening clubs. He has explored various mountain areas in Europe and Iran, and worked with many of the famed Czech rock gardeners. For non-members, this talk is $10.
