Connecticut Horticultural Society is thrilled to welcome Amy Ziffer, who will present “Structure and Ornament in the Garden” at Emanuel Synagogue (160 Mohegan Drive, West Hartford) and on Zoom. A Q&A follows the talk.
The hallmark of great garden design is definition—the boundaries, vertical accents, focal points, and embellishments composed of non-living elements that shape both the garden and our experience of it. Join Amy Ziffer for a look at the importance of often overlooked functional and ornamental design details.
The talk is free for members and $10 for non-members. For more information, visit www.cthort.org.
