“The real challenge of making Visionary Gardeners Season 2 was narrowing it down to just ten,” said producer/director Ian Toews. “We meet so many excellent gardeners across Canada, so those we followed this season are a just the current cross section of many more. This series strives to film people who really push against the definitions of what gardening is. So, we have a garden designer who is more interested in rocks than plants, another who propagates tiny bog plants, and another who uses her garden more like an outdoor art gallery — just to name a few.”
