SUMMARY:Speaker Series - April 2026
DESCRIPTION:Growing Gladiolus with Glad Man 2.0 (Andy Schalk)\nThe presentation will discuss corm size and quality\, planting\, stem harvest\, corm harvest\, corm storage\, and pest management. Following the presentation\, Andy will have a selection of corms available for sale. \nThe speaker\, The Glad Man\, will have gladiolus corms for sale AND the Lily Society will have bulbs too. Stock up on everything you need for a great garden this season! \nAbout Andy:\nAndy Schalk was inspired to start growing glads in 2018 for his son’s July wedding. After receiving 100 corms from his father-in-law and advice from Edmonton horticultural expert\, Jim Hole\, Andy’s journey with glads began. The challenge would be to produce early glads to bloom for the July 14th wedding. They ended up a success and Andy found his new hobby. In 2020\, two ladies from Edmonton asked to buy his cut glads and Andy realized there could be a market for these beautiful blooms. Since his start in 2018\, and with support from his wife and children\, he has grown over 75\,000 glads and is now the largest grower of glads in Alberta. Through social media\, he has gained international attention and is eager to share his passion\, along with growing techniques.

SUMMARY:Speaker Series March 2026
DESCRIPTION:From Aesthetics to Ecology: The New Garden Paradigm \nAcross the globe\, people are reimagining the role of gardens. Beyond beauty\, gardens can be places of ecological resilience and profound meaning. In a growing movement\, designers are creating landscapes that support biodiversity\, adapt to change\, and offer richer human experiences. \nThis new paradigm in garden design\, often called naturalistic planting\, represents a shift from decoration toward ecology\, and from maintenance toward coexistence. It treats plantings as living systems shaped by design\, time\, and care. \nNathaniel and Claire will explore the influential designers and projects leading this movement\, the environmental and experiential benefits it brings for both nature and people\, and how these ideas are being adapted within our own culture and climate through a case study from their Alberta garden. \nThe Zoom link for EHS Members can be found HERE. \n————————— \nPresenter Bios \nNathaniel Hannemann \nPrincipal of Polyflora Studio\, Nathaniel is a garden designer and horticulturist whose work bridges ecological design and artistry. His Edmonton-based practice focuses on creating immersive\, resilient gardens that integrate beauty\, biodiversity\, and long-term care. \nClaire Hannemann \nClaire\, Nathaniel’s sister\, is a communications specialist and horticulturist with a passion for connecting people to nature through education and storytelling. \nTo learn more about their work\, visit polyflorastudio.ca
