Truls Jensen and his wife, Emma Elliott, grow hundreds of unusual alpine, rock garden, woodland and Western native plants at Wild Ginger Farm, their nursery in Beavercreek, Oregon. In his presentation, Truls makes recommendations for creating rock gardens, or adding rock garden plants and features to existing gardens. He’ll discuss a wide range of plants particularly well-suited to rock gardening methods, with a focus on methods for improving soils to sustain these plants.
Wild Ginger Farm supplies many hard-to-find perennials from around the world, offering the adventurous gardener a diverse selection of interesting and uncommon plants.
