Just-Ask-Wim-Vander-Zalm-Chapters-South-Granville-Vancouver

What fruits and vegetables grow best in patio pots? What vegetables can I plant as winter crops? When is the best time to cut back rhodos? How do I overwinter my geraniums and fuchsias? What fast growing evergreen hedge will work for my narrow urban yard? How late can I plant spring-flowering bulbs?

These are just a few of the burning questions that renowned gardening expert Wim Vander Zalm answers again and again as owner of two Art Knapp Plantland garden centres and a long-time regular on CKNW”s The Bill Good Show.

Meet Wim Vander Zalm on Saturday, May 25th, 2013 at 2pm, at Chapters on South Granville for a demonstration and book signing. Read More
