Alpine Garden Club of B.C.

Welcome!

The Alpine Garden Club of B.C. has approximately 400 members in 21 countries, half of whom live in British Columbia, Canada; the balance from North America, Europe, Australia, New Zealand and Japan.

The objectives of our club are:

to promote the propagation and display of
- plants suitable for the alpine garden and alpine house
- rare and unusual species of hardy plants, trees, shrubs and ferns
- plants suitable for the art of bonsai.
to promote an interest in the native plants of British Columbia and their preservation.

Monthly meetings are held at VanDusen Gardens, Floral Hall, 37th and Oak, Vancouver on the second Wednesday, September through June, opening at 7:00, meeting at 7:30 (dates may change according to speakers' schedules).

Beginning with a brief workshop and business meeting, then a judging of members' bench plants, the main program follows with a talk on aspects of growing or propagating a particular group of plants, or a tour of a particular region of interest to our members.
