Our backyard garden is on a city lot in Whitehorse, Yukon. Growing zone maps indicate we are anywhere from zone 0 to zone 2, but we have many zone 3 and zone 4 perennials that are doing quite nicely. This blog is both a photo album and a journal of our garden and our experiences.
About Me
Hank Moorlag
Whitehorse, Yukon, Canada
Retirement has allowed me to pursue, with added vigour, my interest in gardening. I grew up in Southern Ontario where I learned much about gardening from my dad who was in the landscaping and gardening business.
My wife, Susan, shares my enthusiasm for gardening and what you see in this blog is a combined effort. We collaborate on garden design, choice of annuals each year, and we share the maintenance work.
Gardening in the 'north' is a challenge, but northern gardeners have some advantages over our southern neighbours.
