Hi Folks.
I’m Jill Yuzwa. Our blog from Qualicum Landscape Design (QLD) will offer inspiration and storytelling on the wide topics of landscape architecture and garden making.
Since we are heading into the Fall, the season of planning the landscape and gardens, I will share some of my favourite books, plants, people (and their stories) on a biweekly basis.
I have practiced Landscape Architecture and am now humbled by learning to become a gardener. Drawing on those long ago classes of botany and horticulture leads to applying a wider range of plants to Client projects here on Vancouver Island.
There are aspects of design practice that are transferrable and enduring, and those that shift as we change geography. Learning new planting palettes has always been a joy.
In my next post we will cross the Atlantic and introduce Russell Page to readers. Page’s own story is anything but linear.
Until then. Jill and Haida (my dear cattledog).
