There are so many beautiful gardens in the Slocan Valley that showing all of
them here could be difficult, almost impossible.
Instead, I decided to show just one garden to our visitors in Canada and
around the world, leaving to your imagination how the other gardens may look like.
Featured garden - Artist's Garden
- Rabia's
Walking gently on the Earth
First, please meet Rabia herself at her leisure time at her beautiful
property in Appledale, in the Slocan Valley, in the Kootenay region of British
Columbia, Canada. The Slocan river flows just behind the trees in the middle
of the picture.
When Rabia is busy she works as an artist and as a gardener.
Rabia's garden is filled not only with plants but also with her art.

Above you can see a part of Rabia's flower and vegetable gardens,
the view from her patio.
Here is one of Rabia's latest artistic creations - a "Dancing
Girl". The sculpture is 9 feet tall. Sorry, it is already sold.
