Garden Spark: Lauren Springer Ogden talk
Lauren Springer Ogden presents Inspired by the Wild: Designing Naturalistic Plantings for Beauty, Adaptability, and Creatures

Description: In an ever more crowded and unnatural world, we gardeners find refuge and comfort among the plants we grow, the beauty we create, and the wildlife our gardens shelter and support. Most of us are also drawn to natural places, inspired by their endlessly fascinating plants, land forms, and wildlife. For 3 decades, designer, plantswoman, and author Lauren Springer Ogden has created and tended nature-inspired gardens in the harsh and stunning Mountain West and Texas, attempting to capture in microcosm the transcendent serenity she finds in that vast and varied region. In this talk, she shares the process of designing, making, and tending gardens inspired by natural plant communities such as desert/steppe, chaparral/brush, woodland/savannah, and prairie/meadow.

Includes: A 1-hour talk and Q&A with Lauren; book signing and refreshments available after the talk

Speaker Bio: Lauren Springer Ogden has designed public gardens at Denver Botanic Gardens, Rollingwood City Hall, and the Gardens on Spring Creek in Fort Collins, Colorado, where she is on staff. She has written 5 books, including Plant-Driven Design (co-authored with her husband, Scott Ogden) and The Undaunted Garden. A pioneer in waterwise gardening, she also seeks to create beauty that serves wildlife. She believes that neither a gorgeous garden full of exotic plants but without wildlife value, nor a haphazard mishmash of native wildlife plants, are going to satisfy people or creatures, and all should be happy.


GARDEN SPARK is a speaker series on garden design, open by invitation (email gardensparktalks@gmail.com to get on the list) and hosted in a private home in northwest Austin 78759.
