Penelope Hobhouse – The Art & Practice of Gardening: Color in the Garden & Flower Gardens Vol. 2 [VHS]

Posted on May 8, 2012 by Garden Blog

To understand how seriously the British take their gardens, all you have to do is watch Color in the Garden. Penelope Hobhouse, the British garden authority, strolls through Helen Dillon’s private garden in Ireland, commenting with unquenchable enthusiasm on the luscious color combinations that make up the various colored borders. While it seems almost comical to hear the colors of flowers talked about with such conviction, don’t laugh, because you might miss the sage advice that’s slipped in along the way. (For instance, in a purple border, Dillon repeats vibrant hues in front, which allows for “more of a muddle” behind.) Lynden B. Miller, who designed the perennial garden at the New York Botanical Garden, explains how she used pastels on one side and bold colors on the other.In Flower Gardens, Hobhouse takes viewers through her own garden as she tries to explain the marriage of structure and natural chaos in the perfect garden. An incredibly diverse private garden in Cornwall is

Penelope Hobhouse The art and practice of gardening: The Country Garden & the Useful Garden [VHS]

Posted on May 2, 2012 by Garden Blog

Watching Penelope Hobhouse s-l-o-w-l-y stroll through the garden, you can’t help but think she’s trying to give you time to watch the flowers grow. Yet her intellectual approach always makes you think about plants and dirt on a higher plane. In The Country Garden, she explains how “an avenue of views” leads the eye through her house in Southwest England, linking countryside and garden. She strolls through Butterstream, an Irish garden that’s an architectural masterpiece, then garden writer John Brookes weighs in with a refreshingly messier spin. In The Useful Garden, Hobhouse admits that a seven-mile drive to the nearest market convinced her to grow vegetables in raised beds, and she’s determined to show they can be pretty too. She tours the centuries-old walled kitchen garden at Forde Abbey with garden writer Anna Pavord, and their “oohing” over the orderly plantings is almost comical. Another expert, Rosemary Verey, also shows how vegetables can be used to ornamental
