Non-members - $10
In this class, learn about garden makeovers from Deborah Chud’s portfolio. Following a brief discussion of the features of wild landscapes fundamental to naturalistic landscape design, she takes you inside her solutions to garden dilemmas. The specific dilemmas addressed in this class involve: replacement of traditional shrubs, integration of a valued backdrop and existing trees, and whether there can be too much of a good thing in a garden.
Deborah Chud is a retired Massachusetts physician turned garden designer, consultant and educator. Her five years of research on Piet Oudolf have generated the most comprehensive existing database of his plant combinations. In 2019, she was invited to present her work at an international event organized by Oudolf’s co-author, Noel Kingsbury, under the aegis of gardenmasterclass.org. She has also presented to members of the following institutions and organizations: Massachusetts Horticultural Society, Harvard’s Arnold Arboretum, the United States Botanical Garden in Washington, D.C., the Ecological Landscape Alliance, Toronto Botanical Garden, and Delaware Botanic Gardens. The latter two public gardens contain Oudolf-designed sections. In the winter of 2020, Deborah offered a 6-session course on Piet Oudolf’s design principles to a class of amateur gardeners and professional landscape designers. She now offers that course as an on-demand video series.
