During the morning David will talk about his experiences with dry climate gardening at Lambley and how to go about planning and planting a garden where the summers are very hot and dry and the winters are frosty. In the afternoon David will discuss the glories of the flower and vegetable garden he and his artist wife Criss Canning have created at Lambley and how they have selected the right varieties of vegetables for a garden that gets frost from April until November as well as how they have selected the range of flowers that they grow not only for the garden but also for the house and for Criss to paint. The venue is the beautifully presented garden of Lacou, which features verdant lawns and unifying plantings of murrayas, pittosporum, buddlejas, star jasmine and westringias. Roses and irises line walkways beneath wisteria, and there is an orchard of espaliered apples, cherries, and huge weeping mulberries.
