We’re launching Debra Lee Baldwin’s new book, the celebratory tenth anniversary, second edition of Designing with Succulents! Festivities include a Succulent Plant and Pottery Faire with local ceramic artists and plantspeople in the courtyard. Debra will also be there, signing the completely revised and updated new edition of the book that created global interest in succulents and made horticultural history. Then during her presentation, Debra will show us gorgeous photos from her new book (many taken right here in San Diego). And because we're Debra's "home club" (she's a lifetime SDHS member and our 2017 Horticulturist of the Year), she'll share her vision of the future of San Diego gardens. Come early for the Debra Lee book signing and special vendors marketplace.
November Meeting Rick Darke Monday, October 9 6:00 PM - 8:30 PM
We’ve arrived at a watershed in design that invites the flux of living communities into the essential character of public and private gardens. This approach is beautifully represented by The High Line, a 1.45-mile-long park in New York City created on an elevated section of a no longer used New York Central Railroad spur called the West Side Line. Before it was restored, the High Line was an untouched, abandoned, overgrown landscape. Today it is much more than that. It’s a central plaza, a cultural center, a walkway, and a green retreat in a bustling city that is free for all to enjoy. But above all else, it is a beautiful, dynamic garden, with plantings designed by Piet Oudolf, one of the world’s most extraordinary garden designers. Rick Darke discusses why The High Line is a model of creative, conservation-based design and stewardship that supports a diversity of life, both human and other. He also illustrates how insights from the High Line are worthy of emulation in residential and community landscapes around the world.
