An Introduction to English-style Gardens
Sponsor(s): Sarah P. Duke Gardens
Cost: Fee: $25; $20 for Gardens members & Duke students/staff
An authentic English garden does not translate well into North Carolina conditions. But the strategies and design elements can be adapted to our landscapes. Duke Gardens horticulturist Annabel Renwick will introduce you to the use of definition, and open ground and mixed borders in this lecture. Interested gardeners may also want to sign up for her follow-up workshop to sketch out an English-style garden for their landscape.
