Our Flower Show Exhibit NARGS: Our Parent Organization |
DVC-NARGS at the Philadelphia Flower ShowOur 2010 Exhibit: A Traveler's RockeryThe list of plants used in the exhibit is available for download (Word format). The design evokes, with contemporary container garden sensibility, the playful sculpted home rockery of a well-traveled Delaware Valley gardener/collector from another era. Using an irregular overall form, typical rock garden elements (screes, rectangular containers and raised stone beds) are filled with plant material from around the world. Well-chosen plants, hardy and tender, diminutive and standard, can together support a lush design to thrive in our hot, humid summer environment. The exhibit took Best in Show for plant societies!
