Maggi Young:
Peter Korn is the hardworking young Swedish gardener who has made quite a name for himself here in Scotland.  He was responsible, with his friend, Johan Nilson, for  building the stunning new Swedish peat block walls at the Explorer's Garden at Pitlochry last October.  Peter is also a an excellent Speaker and will be back in Scotland in the autumn of this year as the SRGC Travelling Speaker.
