On Wednesday November 20, at 7:30 PM, at Room 12 of the Hillview Community Center, 97 Hillview Avenue, Los Altos, the De Anza Chapter of the American Rhododendron Society will feature a presentation by Bob and Judy Mathey on their Harmony Woods garden, located in Mendocino, California.
The Harmony Woods garden, nestled into a cathedral of redwoods, reflect a penchant for collecting an enormous range of unusual and beautiful plants. The emphasis is on rhododendrons and conifers, with over 300 specimens of each, but they are a small part of a vast array of plant material gracing over twenty beds. The program will show how two waterfalls and a stone bridge and other parts of the garden were created in 2006 and 2007 and the planting with rhododendrons, maples, ferns, and other types of plants. The presentation will emphasize the exuberance of rhododendrons seen in ways other than flowers, the influence of parentage in hybrids, the uses of rhododendrons in garden design, and a few slides on the construction of the waterfall. In this program, you can learn how a garden is established, which can help you in building your garden.
Information on the garden can be seen at http://www.christiansenarnersculpture.com/landscape-design/stone-bridge/
Judy Mathey at one time was the president of the board for the Mendocino Coast Botanical Gardens.
