David Glenn (garden designer)
David Glenn is a plantsman and leading exponent of Dry Climate Gardening in Australia. His garden ''(Lambley )'' is located at Ascot, 12 km North of Ballarat in Victoria, Australia. The development of the garden coincided with the prolonged drought experienced throughout much of Eastern Australia over the period 2000 to 2010 and earlier.〔'Dry Climate Gardening', Your Garden Magazine, Summer 2007〕 At the same time, the garden was recognised internationally for its innovative use of plant types and forms.〔'The English Garden' magazine, January 2012〕 Along with William Martin's Wigandia developed around the same time, it represented one of the first really considered responses to the challenges of gardening in the Australian climate without resorting to native plantings. David was born in the UK to a family with gardening in its blood.〔'Lambley, A Waterwise Wonder', ''Your Garden'' magazine, Spring 2011, p. 21〕 He emigrated to Australia in the 1960s.〔'Lambley, A Waterwise Wonder', ''Your Garden'' magazine, Spring 2011, p. 21〕 David and his still-life painter wife, (Criss Canning ), established Lambley in 1987. Prior to this time Glenn conducted a wholesale plant nursery at Olinda in Melbourne's, Dandenong Ranges. 〔Carey, V. Ed, 2012, 'Country Gardens of Australia: Our Favourite Rural Gardens', News Life Media, p. 56〕 〔'Lambley, A Waterwise Wonder', ''Your Garden'' magazine, Spring 2011, p. 21〕 The name of the garden refers to Glenn's childhood home, Lambley Village in Nottinghamshire in the United Kingdom.〔'Lambley, A Waterwise Wonder', ''Your Garden'' magazine, Spring 2011, p. 21〕
Glenn is widely acknowledged as developing the exemplar for dry climate gardening in the southern hemisphere. The noted Australian designer Paul Bangay has described Lambley as "One of the most famous" dry perennial gardens in the world.〔Bangay, Paul (2011), Paul Bangay's Guide to Plants, Penguin Australia p. 166〕 While New Zealand Gardener magazine has described Lambley as 'one of the best examples of gardening with perennials' in the world.〔'New Zealand Gardener' (Sept 1998), p. 51〕
A number of references cite the influence of Glenn's artist wife (Criss Canning's ) instinct for 'shape, texture and colour' in the success of the garden. 〔2014, 'The Gardener's Garden', Phaidon, London, p. 14〕
==Plant Breeding==
Allied with his capacity for garden design and plant selection is coupled an unerring ability as a plantsman. Plants selected by Glenn are grown throughout the world. The patented Euphorbia x martinii 'Ascot Rainbow' is to be found in gardens throughout Europe and the United States where it is grown for its frost tolerance and intense variegation which is said to be quite unmatched in the Genus.〔'Qantas: The Australian Way', #236, p. 68〕 The plant featured on the cover of the Royal Horticultural Society journal 'The Plantsman' in March 2013.〔'The Plantsman' (March 2013), Royal Horticultural Society, United Kingdom〕 In a similar tribute, Agastache 'Sweet Lili' has been lauded by Australian garden designers as a 'superlative new selection'〔Rickard, Simon (2011), The New Ornamental Garden, CSIRO Publishing, p. 208〕 Paul Bangay has written of the same plant, “I use this in all my gardens as it is such a long-flowering plant and has a very distinct and unusual flower colour”.〔Bangay, Paul (2011), Paul Bangay's Guide to Plants, Penguin Australia p. 166〕
