学会概况与定位
捷克岩石园协会（捷克语 Spolek českých skalničkařů，缩写 CZRGS）是捷克专门面向岩石植物爱好者的民间团体，由 Zdeněk Zvolánek 等资深种植者在捷克共和国布尔诺地区法院正式登记为协会，注册号 IČO 04999xxx，登记档案号 L 21494/KSBR。协会会徽选用采自克尔科诺谢山（Krkonoše）最高峰斯涅日卡山（Sněžka）高山石质山脊上的 Primula minima f. sudetica（小型报春花苏台德变型）作为象征，体现捷克岩石园传统对小型高山植物与本土物种的偏爱。
会员与兄弟团体
协会会员主要从事利用天然石块构建岩生园（rock garden / alpinum）和裂隙园（crevice garden），同时开展种子采集、高山植物繁殖和野外引种。协会自我定位中明确指出，捷克的种植者、采种人和天然岩生园建造者属于世界岩石园领域中的顶尖群体，协会与英国 Alpine Garden Society、北美 North American Rock Garden Society 和苏格兰 Scottish Rock Garden Club 三家同类团体保持长期姐妹关系，共同推动世界范围的小型高山植物研究与种植交流。
年度国际会议
协会主办两年一届的捷克国际岩石园大会（5th Czech International Rock Garden Conference），第五届定于 2027 年 5 月 7 日至 11 日在布拉格西南郊的 Průhonice（Hotel Floret，Květnové náměstí 391）举行，会期共五天，含八场主题讲座、两日花园参观、四辆大巴分组的布拉格环线与布尔诺环线岩石园导览。会务通过 conference@czrgs.cz 邮箱联系，会议注册费早鸟价 719 欧元（2026 年 8 月 31 日前）/ 晚鸟价 759 欧元（9 月 1 日后），费用含讲座入场、花园参观与巴士、五天午餐与周五至周二的晚餐，不含住宿。
园圃参观与会员植物交流
会议花园导览分两条线路：布拉格环线包括 Zdeněk Zvolánek（Karlík）、Stanislav Čepička（Praha-Radotín）、Vojtěch Holubec（Praha-Suchdol）和 Jiří Papoušek（Rozotky）四位资深园主的私人石质园圃；布尔诺环线包括 Jaroslav Baláž（Rožínka）、Zdeněk Hlavoň（Syrovice）、Vlastimil Braun（Žďár nad Sázavou）和 Mendel 大学植物园的阿尔卑斯植物专类区。这些园圃集中展示了捷克岩石园传统中石灰岩裂隙、白垩质凝灰岩（tufa）墙、火山岩堆叠和砂床等不同石质处理下的高山植物群落，许多园主同时是小型球根、Juno 鸢尾、Dionysia、Saxifraga 等属的专类种植者和种子分享者。
About the Society
The Czech Rock Gardeners Society (Spolek českých skalničkařů, CZRGS) is a Czech non-profit association registered at the Regional Court in Brno under file number L 21494/KSBR (registration number IČO 04999xxx). Its emblem depicts Primula minima f. sudetica, a tiny primrose that grows on the alpine fell-fields of Mount Sněžka in the Krkonoše Mountains of northwest Czechia, reflecting the society’s focus on the smallest members of the plant kingdom: cushion- and bun-forming perennials, dwarf bulbs, shrublets and the smallest conifers.
Members and Sister Societies
CZRGS members build natural-stone outcrops known as rock gardens or alpinums, and crevice gardens constructed from local limestone, dolerite and tufa. The society’s own statement places Czech growers, seed collectors and rock-garden builders among the best in the world of rock gardening. It maintains long-standing sister-society ties with the Alpine Garden Society (UK), the North American Rock Garden Society (NARGS) and the Scottish Rock Garden Club (SRGC), working together to share knowledge about alpine plants and garden construction.
International Rock Garden Conference
The society organises the biennial Czech International Rock Garden Conference. The fifth edition runs from 7 to 11 May 2027 at Hotel Floret in Průhonice, Květnové náměstí 391, a village two kilometres beyond the southern border of Prague near the D1 motorway. The five-day programme combines eight lectures with a two-day garden tour in four coaches, split into a Prague circle and a Brno circle. Registration is handled through conference@czrgs.cz; the early fee is EUR 719 (before 31 August 2026) and the late fee is EUR 759 (from 1 September 2026), covering lectures, garden visits and coach transport, five lunches, four evening meals, and the farewell buffet.
Featured Gardens and Plant Traditions
The Prague circle visits Zdeněk Zvolánek’s garden in Karlík (dolomite limestone and a new crevice garden in the street), Stanislav Čepička’s Praha-Radotín garden (a specialist collection of dwarf bulbs and saxatile alpines on limestone and tufa), Vojtěch Holubec’s Praha-Suchdol garden (limestone blocks above a pond with a separate tufa bed and a new volcanic outcrop), and Jiří Papoušek’s garden in Roztoky. The Brno circle visits Jaroslav Baláž in Rožínka, Zdeněk Hlavoň in Syrovice, Vlastimil Braun in Žďár nad Sázavou and the Arboretum of the Mendel University in Brno, which maintains a 45-year-old botanical garden with extensive crevice, Saxifraga and Cyclamen collections.
