Join Kenton J. Seth for this free and informative Zoom class on Crevice Gardening. Crevice gardens have historically been an esoteric, European garden style with a strange name, but recent developments have catapulted them onto the international stage and into major public gardens and back yards, including the western US. By virtue of growing plants closely with rocks, the opportunity arises to grow certain exotic and native plants better than they can be in a traditional garden. Remarkably, a crevice garden works to shed water in a wet climate and store water in a dry climate, making it a universally useful system, also dealing with awkward garden spaces or making plantable alternatives to retaining walls. The ecological use of broken concrete as a stone alternative offers an opportunity for gardeners in places where rock is unavailable or too expensive.
Kenton J. Seth is a Colorado-based garden designer. He has a small nursery to grow plants for his projects, which range from Western Colorado to both US coasts and even a few overseas. Crevice gardens dominate his work, including a book due out in the summer of 2022. But Kenton also works with natives, dryland gardens and meadows. His blog is at http://kentonjseth.blogspot.com/ and photos of his work at PaintbrushGardens.com
