I’m starting a series of color in the garden with this short video of Cantigny Gardens (a public garden outside of Chicago, Illinois). These folks do a tremendous job on designing for bold and brassy color (as well as relaxed formal designs) and for showing off plants to their best effect.

Check out this short video as a first step in exploring great garden color combinations.

    Here’s a primer I wrote a few years ago on color in the garden. Not as sophisticated as Sydney Eddison. But it’s pretty good for digesting color basics in a hurry.

    Glad you did that. :-) I was going to email you today and ask.
