Dramatic Vignettes for Your Garden in Winter with Carol Lindsay

Carol Lindsay is the Landscape Designer for Design in a Day. She is also a partner in Urban Renaissance, a home design/build service w her partner and spouse, Robert Lindsay.

Landscape designer Carol Lindsay shows how to create year-round drama and interest in your garden. Is your garden spectacular in winter? Or is it like many gardens, slightly boring, reflecting the blahs of winter? Do you avoid looking at your landscape once December comes, trying not to see the mulch, limp Hellebores, and those varied perennials that are supposed to be evergreen but look tattered and torn? Do your neighbors have the old styled rhodys, azaleas, and red weeping Japanese maple thing going…looking nice, but not very exciting?

Don’t let your winter garden get you down…Landscape Design in a Day owner Carol Lindsay will show how to work with your landscape for drama and interest year round. She will also show slides of residential gardens and include some of her favorite full season plants at the Oregon Garden.
