dante in giverny narrow 695x1024
It is in Giverny where Monet was most fully able to express himself as a gardener, over the nearly 43 years that he lived there, from 1883 to his death in 1926. My presentation provides an overview of what shaped the gardens Monet created there, and how those gardens were restored in the late 1970s.

About West Van Garden Club

The West Vancouver Garden Club was founded in 1962 by a small group of gardening enthusiasts who wanted to meet with others who shared their passion. Help us grow, by inviting friends and neighbours to learn more about preserving our natural plants, birds and bees.
