Title: Ian Young's Garden and SRGC feature in Finnish Garden Magazine
Post by: Maggi Young on March 12, 2018, 09:01:25 PM

The talented Saila Routio has written an article about Ian Young in the Finnish garden magazine PIHA - she was kind enough to include  me and the Small White Dogs too!

Saila's photos of the layout are much better!

 It was a very wet day - her photos of the  garden came out very well!

 Nice publicity for the SRGC, Bulb Log and International Rock Gardener to  Finnish gardeners - thanks, Saila!

That is a very nice publicity also to SRGC in Finland. :) I know Saila, but haven't seen that number of Piha yet, I'll have to go buy it. :)
I wish Saila had been over there in spring, when your Erythroniums were in flower, they are quite unknown plants here for most people.

Interesting that Google translates the contents page of the magazine website as'

"In an interview with Ian Young, Scottish plant disease" ;-)

The cover of the magazine says: Ian Young, plant wizard from Scotland.
The heading of the article: Interviewing Ian Young. If you have looked for information in the web you may have bumped into this man. Ian Young is active in Scottish rock garden society, SRGC, and brings out information especially in the web so that anyone can access it.
