Gertrude Jekyll: Plants & Designs
16/02/2023 @ 7:30 pm - 9:00 pm
Our speaker, David Usher, will be giving an insight into Jekyll’s work and looking at her painterly approach to colour in the garden….
David was Head Gardener for 15 years at Hestercombe Gardens, where he restored the gardens to Gertrude Jekyll’s original design from the many drawings that were available to him. This talk covers Jekyll’s career, from her beginnings in horticulture to the designs which made her one of the most influential women in the history of British gardening.
