Crevice Garden

The alpine crevice garden features alpine plants that flourish in mountainous areas.  The technique of creating crevices similar to that found in the mountains is demonstrated here.  There is also a surrounding area of native plants.  This garden is a partnership with Calgary Rock and Alpine Gardening Society.  This garden is available to be sponsored.  Please visit our Support Us page for more information.
