Key to good garden design

Garden clubs from Harden, Yass and Young were guests of the Boorowa Club. Guests and members listened to local horticulturalist, Craig Southwell, give a talk on garden design. 

Craig spoke of the principles involved in designing a garden, whether it is a new garden or an established garden. Key to good garden design is more than buying a plant and plopping it in the garden with a bit of lawn he indicated. Craig advised gardeners to consider a plan, analyse the site, work out your needs and desires for the garden, draw a functional plan encompassing the functions and space of the garden. Next meeting at the Recreation Club 7pm, October 6. All welcome.
