Time: TBA (3hrs)
Location: MUN Botanical Garden Field Centre (306 Mt. Scio Road, St. John's)
Maximum enrolment: 10 people
  • ***THE ALPINE TROUGH WORKSHOP IS NOW FULL. If you would like to add your name to our waitlist please fill out the information below.
    Please keep in mind that very few spaces open up, if at all. We will also collect names of interested persons for future workshops of the same type. You will be contacted only if a space opens up, or a new workshop is scheduled.

    Instructor: Tim Walsh, Nursery Manager
    Description: 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 need the hard work and space needed to grow these remarkable plants. In this three hour class, Tim will help you construct an alpine trough, plus teach you 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.

    Format: Hands-on (everyone will create and take home an alpine trough).

    All materials (except gloves) will be provided. Plant material will be for sale for those who wish to add plants to their trough. Pre-registration is required.
