More than 35 million single-family homes sit on lots between one-eighth and one-half an acre—meaning neighbors on both sides and in back, with little or no scenery and a decided lack of privacy. Luckily, it’s possible to create a peaceful retreat—even in the most urban environment—with thoughtful garden design. Includes information on plant choices, hedges, buying and building different types of screens, tips on the most efficient and visually satisfying use of space, and much more. Lecture will be followed by an opportunity to purchase Wingate’s book and have it signed.
