Visit to a Private Garden - exclusively for Hollister House Garden members
2025-07-17 10:00 - 13:00 (America/New_York)
In 1982, Lynden Miller rescued and restored The Conservatory Garden in Central Park. Based on her belief that good public open spaces can change city life, she has designed many other gardens and parks in New York City since that time. Her most recent project was the beautiful restoration of the 70th Street Garden at the Frick Museum.
But before Lynden tackled the public gardens of New York, she transformed her own landscape in Sharon. Her private garden clearly demonstrates her artistry and keen eye for color, texture and structure. It features mixed herbaceous borders of perennials and shrubs deftly composed to create brushstrokes of hues backed by a yew hedge. There is a daylily walk, a flowering meadow with paths mowed, a woodland garden, a raised herb garden and a cottage garden for unusual plants.
Lynden is also the author of Parks, Plants and People: Beautifying the Urban Landscape, published by Norton in 2009. The book was the winner of American Horticultural Society 2010 National Book Award.
Following our garden visit we will enjoy lunch at Le Gamin in Sharon.
Address and parking instructions will be sent to registered participants one week prior to the visit.
