A gardener since he could hold a shovel, Bryan Fischer holds a B.S. in horticulture and an interdisciplinary minor in organic agriculture from Colorado State University. Now he is Curator of Plant Collections for the Gardens on Spring Creek in Fort Collins, where he designed a half-acre Prairie Garden that has garnered national and international attention. Outside of the public garden realm, Bryan breeds and selects especially garden-worthy forms of native plants that retain their wildlife value, botanizes in wild spaces, and writes, speaks, and teaches regionally and nationally. Bryan is a regular contributor to Fine Gardening. He keeps an intensive personal garden where he trials both design concepts and his new plant introductions.
Colorado plantswoman and designer Lauren Springer has been pioneering ecologically attuned plant selection, garden practices, and regionally resonant design for more than three decades, beginning with her development of hellstrips back in the 1990's. She holds a masters degree in horticulture from Penn State and has been a professional propagator for much of her career. Her work is featured regularly in both the national and international press. Four of her recent design projects have received Audubon Rockies Habitat Hero designation. Through Lauren's public garden designs, books, classes and talks, and plant introductions, she continues to influence and help move the Rocky Mountain region's horticulture forward to a more diverse, creature-supportive, beautiful, and resilient future.
