How a Heated Discussion On Gardens in 1890s England Came West Join us for a slide show and discussion about how our present day aesthetics in garden styling has its immediate roots from turn of the century England. Two gentlemen had an argument, a woman settled it, new ideals and designs developed – this is a legacy we have inherited. Included will be beautiful slides of gardens expressing these ideals, the formal designs of Bloomfield, the loose plantings of Robinson, and the mastery of a great ‘amateur’ woman garden designer; Gertrude Jekyll. Cost: $5; $10 after October 15th
