Garden Dialogues 2024: Toronto

Register now to explore Sky Garden, a residential rooftop in downtown Toronto which blends native plantings and local artistry, and features a stunning panoramic view of the city. This event will be led by Principal Kate Fox-Whyte and Landscape Designer Abigayle Lalonde of Fox Whyte Landscape Architecture & Design.

Located on the top of a seven-story residential building, this newly renovated residence includes a green roof with winding garden beds filled with a native pollinator planting matrix. The garden’s commissioned sculptures and metal screens showcase a unique blend of artistic expression and structural engineering, highlighting the work of local artists and craftsmen.

According to the designers, the project demonstrates “a commitment to environmental sustainability, and a harmonization of a natural landscape within a highly urban context.” Join TCLF for this exceptional Garden Dialogue and learn the secrets behind this garden’s creation.
