About the photo:
Valleybrook Gardens of Abbotsford, British Columbia is pleased to announce that they received the prestigious gold ribbon for Best Display Garden at the recent VanDusen Flower and Garden Show in Vancouver, June 9 to 13, 2004.

The display was designed and co-presented by Reinier van de Poll of VAN DE POLL Garden Design. The Show theme this year was "Garden Tales: Gardens from Literature". This winning garden was an interpretation of "The Three Billy Goats Gruff".

Judges commented that: "This garden is beautifully designed and executed. The scale, composition, and artfulness of the display are incomparable. It shows that a display does not have to be large or splashy to come forward as a clear winner. The materials are well chosen; the arrangement of the plants was done with discernment. The interpretation of the story is both innovative and humourous."

Reinier van de Poll tried to create "A garden with endless views. The designer's goal was to give each visitor to our feature display garden a sense of mystery and curiosity -- drawing them in to discover a surprise around each corner."
