Bill Terry (author)

Since 1994, Bill Terry has lived on the Sunshine Coast of British Columbia, with his wife, Rosemary, pursuing a lifelong ambition to create the perfect garden. Bill specializes in plant propagation and has taught this subject in the Capilano University Continuing Education program. He also lectures on the Blue Poppy and its relatives and raises the plants for sale. At one time, his collection of Asiatic poppies (Meconopsis) was the most diverse in North America. Now retired, Bill worked as a CBC executive, with a broadcast career that spanned thirty-five years and encompassed thirteen jobs in radio and television production and management in four Canadian cities. Bill believes gardening is the most optimistic of occupations, which explains why gardeners tend to live to a great age.

He is the author of "Blue Heaven: Encounters with the Blue Poppy," (2009), "Beyond Beauty: Hunting the Wild Blue Poppy" (2012), "Beauty by Design: Inspired Gardening in the Pacific Northwest." (2013, co-authored with his wife, Rosemary Bates),[1] and "The Carefree Garden: Letting Nature Play her Part" (2015). All are published by TouchWood Editions, Victoria BC, Canada.
