80 gardens across Hamilton area welcome visitors for last Open Garden Week
I've written at least 30 of these introductions to Open Garden Week. You would think it would come easily by now. But no. I'm torn between thankfulness and awe and a bouquet of other sentiments. Eighty. That's the total number of gardens listed here on these pages. The people who made these gardens — sometimes over decades — are sharing them with you on this final Hamilton Spectator Open Garden Week — which begins tomorrow and runs to July 1 — and its partly parallel Waterdown and Area Garden Walk. I'm grateful, even overwhelmed, by the generosity, hospitality and benevolence of the garden owners who are welcoming any and all visitors over the 10 days of the event. Listings are organized geographically and by their first open date. Please check listings Gardening is largely an unselfish act: we make gardens to share them with others — family, neighbours, friends, passersby. And in the coming days, visitors. Not strangers, because as Irish bard William Butler Yeats wrote 'There are no strangers here; only friends you haven't met yet.' In case you missed it, this is the Grand Finale. This is the 30th edition of Open Garden Week and it is the last one. (I'm planning to keep writing about area gardeners and their gardens as long as The Spec will have me and I can still stroll around other people's gardens.) But Open Garden Week is exiting with a flourish, going out with a bang. We have many, many returning garden hosts and we have many, many first-time hosts, at least some of whom were moved by my ominous caveat: It's now … or never. Visitors' choices are, well, huge. There are gardens open from Burlington to Grimsby and south to Haldimand. Almost every community of Hamilton — Dundas, Ancaster, Stoney Creek, Flamborough and the 'old city' of Hamilton above and below the escarpment we call the Mountain — is represented. There are country gardens, city gardens, gardens with native plants, with water, with big trees and dwarf trees. There are gardens with a healthy dose of whimsy, with art, with an artist's sensibility. (Some gardeners have noted their property's accessibility or lack of same: These descriptions have not been tested or verified.) So many: yours to pick and choose. Dave and Cathy Cummins get a special shout-out here. Dave was one of the original six gardeners who signed up for the first event in 1992. Partly because I pleaded with him to close the first-and-last circle, Dave and Cathy are opening their magnificent garden in Dundas on three mornings and one evening this year. Even Dave admits his garden is looking pretty good this year, so if you haven't seen it, make sure you do this year. Dundas and Hamilton west of downtown have a combined total of 24 open gardens, with a huge variety of types and designs. A bunch of neighbours in Westdale have banded together to open at the same times (I'm one of them) and most are within an easy walk of each other. There are lots of lovely gardens on the Mountain, of all types and styles. Several are the products of decades of gardening experience. There is such a thing as garden tour etiquette, something that's especially important when your host is letting you in to her or his private space There is such a thing as garden tour etiquette, something that's especially important when your host is letting you in to her or his private space You will see quite a few listings mentioning their owners are members of Garden Hamilton/Mount Hamilton Horticultural Society. I'm one of them and if you have an interest in gardening, you might want to consider becoming a member, too. Email me at gardenwriterrob@ if you want more information on that. Some stalwarts from the past weren't prepared to open their gardens this year, but Mary Galli is keeping the flag flying in Haldimand at her Windecker Road garden. Margaret Hunsperger, who with her late husband, Ron hosted hundreds, perhaps thousands of visitors over many years, is welcoming people into their magnificent garden in Burlington. Ruth Moffatt and Jim Howden are opening their Grimsby garden, which, to paraphrase an Acton leather-goods shop, is worth the drive. Their lakeside garden is breathtaking. Among the Waterdown and Area Garden Walk listings, look for the Union Street garden of Arie Vanspronsen and Lee Bolton; this will be their last time opening this plant lovers' garden. It is fabulous, but then what would you expect from someone born above a florist's shop in Holland and who spent a career in the garden trade? Also check out Trudy and Roy Bliedung's wonderful garden on Carlisle Road, and Pearl Hoogerdyk's incredible garden on Safari Road. There are so many others who have been stalwarts of Open Garden Week over the years. The problem with mentioning one or two or six great gardens is that you have to leave others out. That's especially unfortunate because some of the best gardens are the ones you didn't expect. Every one of the gardens in this 'OGW30' is worth your time. Check out the gardens whose listings pique your interest. Trust your instincts, make a visit, get inspired, make a connection, see a plant you have to find for YOUR garden. Pack a hat and something cold to drink and make a road trip out of your visits. If you live in Flamborough, see Stoney Creek and central Hamilton gardens. If you're from Grimsby, come into central Hamilton and see some of the fabulous inner-city gardens that are on show. The great thing about going farther afield is that you travel roads and see communities you might not otherwise have a reason to visit. Finally, I say it every June and I mean it more with every passing year: Open Garden Week only happens because you make it happen. This is all about 30 years' worth of generosity, hospitality and the gifts our gardens give us. Thank you. Thank you. Thank you.

Paul Coulson offered $250m to exit Ardagh Group
Irish billionaire Paul Coulson is close to finalising a deal that would transfer complete control of Ardagh Group, a global packaging giant he developed, to its creditors, reported Bloomberg. Coulson will receive a one-time payment of approximately $250m in exchange for Ardagh's glass business and his majority stake in the metal unit. The decision follows intense negotiations with creditors to resolve Ardagh's substantial debt, which includes approximately $12.5bn in borrowings. Under the proposed settlement, Coulson will step away from the company he has expanded over the last two-and-a-half decades, which includes relinquishing the Ardagh Metal Packaging (AMP) division. The terms of the deal, still under discussion, are part of broader debt solution talks. These talks are centred on addressing around $2.5bn of bonds due in August 2026 and would require a fresh capital injection into the business. Bloomberg reported that unsecured creditors would gain a majority stake post-restructuring, with secured creditors having their debt reinstated at par and receiving a high coupon rate. Coulson had initially proposed spinning off shares from the AMP division into a new entity, with 80% ownership retained by existing Ardagh shareholders and only 20% allocated to unsecured creditors. Ardagh currently holds a 76% stake in the New York-listed AMP. Ardagh Group acknowledged the need to reduce its $12.5bn debt more than a year ago, as the financial burden grew unsustainable amid disappointing earnings. The situation with senior unsecured creditors became more complex when Ardagh announced in April that its beverage cans unit had seen a turnaround, with a surge in activity across various beverage categories. AMP's revenues increased by 11% year-on-year in the first quarter, reaching $1.27bn, prompting an upward revision of its full-year earnings forecast. In contrast, Ardagh's legacy glass business experienced a 6.7% revenue decline to $961m in the same quarter, continuing its struggle. Additionally, holders of approximately $1.8bn in high-risk bonds from a holding company above Ardagh Group stand to lose the majority of their investment, with these bonds currently trading at only 4% of their initial value. Coulson's control over Ardagh Group is facilitated through an 18.8% direct stake in its ultimate parent and a 52.4% interest in Yeoman Capital, which owns 33.9% of the group, effectively giving him a 36.6% equity share in the business.
