Brian Minter is a horticulturist, author and syndicated columnist from Chilliwack, British Columbia Canada. He and his wife, Faye, founded Minter Gardens in 1980, a 32-acre mixed-style show garden. It was described in 1001 Gardens You Must See Before You Die as a “thrilling three-season experience,” and a place that will “dazzle the senses.” In 1998, he published Brian Minter's New Gardening Guide. Minter writes a weekly gardening column for the Vancouver Sun newspaper. Minter is a Member of the Order of Canada, a recipient of the Queen Elizabeth II Golden and Diamond Jubilee Medals, and the Order of British Columbia, among other awards.
