NARGS Talk - Scott Zona - "Turning Rocks into a Rock Garden"

With bonus short-talk by Cyndy Cromwell, Treasurer, NARGS Piedmont Chapter on the North American Rock Garden Society Annual General Meeting 2023 in Truro, Nova Scotia.
Presented by Scott Zona, Botanist & Author, with introduction by Bobby Ward, NARGS Piedmont Chapter Program Chair on April 20, 2024.
Scott Zona has always wanted to build a rock garden, but his botanical education and career took him in other directions around the world studying the diversity and natural history of tropical plants, resulting in the publication of over 175 technical articles, two books, and a journal editor. Retiring to Piedmont North Carolina in 2019 from Florida, the desire to build a rock garden was rekindled. At his lecture, Scott will discuss what he has learned in building his first rock garden: aggressive plants, plant size in scale with other plants, year-round interest, editing out plants, some plants just die, and learning that rock gardening is a work in progress.

I just place an order. They ship from within the USA, so you don't need an import permit.
