Of Grasses and Grasscapes: Ornamental Grasses for Your Garden
Dave Demers, a modern day plant hunter and garden designer, has traveled the world to discover plants in their native habitats in search of the best grass cultivars for our northern landscapes. Born, raised, and trained in Québec, Canada. Dave has fond memories of tending his mother’s hollyhocks and picking berries on his grandparents’ farm.That upbringing led him to choose horticulture as his career. After working at home and overseas, with serious traveling on the back roads across many continents, Dave settled in Vancouver, Canada. In addition to owning and operating CYAN Horticulture, a landscape design and consultation firm, he is a tireless photographer, garden writer, and lecturer.
