We have New Publications!

The 2019 Gardening Calendar features photos of Calgary gardens and offers monthly tips and seed planting charts for ornamentals and edibles. Also new this year is the Society’s gardening journal, The Growing Journal. The journal allows for daily and monthly tracking, plant database and plant log sections for recording what’s been planted in what conditions, an area to record what insects are being found and when, places to sketch, areas to capture ideas, Words of Wisdom and checklists. There’s even a pocket for storing seed packets or plant tags.  It’s a great tool for an ardent gardener. The calendar ($10) and journal ($20) may be viewed and purchased at the Society office. Purchasing these publications help fund Society programs and initiatives.

Looking for great resources to help you garden more successfully? Eight times a year, the Society publishes the member e-magazine, Calgary Gardening. The articles in the magazine provide a wealth of gardening information written by Calgary gardeners with years of experience working in our unique climate. Calgary Gardening issues are posted in the members-only section of the website. Currently, magazines dating back to the February/March 2015 issue are available online.

Previous publications by the Calgary Horticultural Society, Calgary Gardener Volumes 1 and 2, 100th Anniversary Calgary Gardening, Calgary Zone Map are out of print but may be reviewed in the Society’s library.
