We all know a well-designed landscape when we see it; we naturally respond to a garden that ‘works’ though it is sometimes hard to pinpoint exactly why. Enjoy a Brookline neighborhood stroll with an experienced gardener, Myrna Balk, who will point out the design principles underlying great gardens, and how to repeat these ideas in your own space. We will talk about styles of gardens, timing, color, and how spaces can create enclaves of beauty. Please bring a sketchbook or camera to capture ideas and inspirations for your garden. Meet on Woodland Road in the Larz Anderson area of Jamaica Plain – directions will be sent upon registration. (By the way, that’s the street Tom Brady and Gisele Bundchen are moving to.) $20. Register at https://aded.brooklinema.gov/detail.php?id=546478.
