| The name of the Danish Society is: Den Alpine Have.
We are affiliated to The Alpine Garden Society in England. We are about 450 members in Denmark.
The objective of our Society is to promote the interest and knowledge of alpine plants - how to cultivate these plants in our garden and study how they grow in the nature.
Therefore, we arrange visits to members' gardens, lectures, courses, exhibitions and publish a Danish magazine in order to promote the knowledge of alpine plants.
The expression "alpine plants" encompass all plants suitable for a scree, rock garden, frame or alpine house covering true alpines and small hardy plants including perennials, bulbs, ferns, woodland plants, dwarf conifers, shrubs and other plants within the scope and the interest for the Society.
We arrange meetings throughout the country with lectures and where members can exchange and buy plants.
Four times a year The Alpine Garden Society in England publish 'The Alpine Gardener' and all members of the Danish Society receive the magazine. The quality of the magazine is very high and through text and photos of alpine plants, it promotes the knowledge of alpine plants.
Through The Alpine Garden Society our members can buy books at favourable prices and receive a very professional seed list once a year offering seed from alpines and rare plants from all over the world.
The membership fee is 425 Danish kroner and includes a membership of The Alpine Garden Society, England.
