Color Theory for Gardeners Lecture by David Thiergartner

“In a garden, every gardener may be his own artist without apology or explanation.” —Louise Beebe Wilder

The art of gardening includes the visual impact of color.  Color in all its forms – including the endless color spectrum of flowers, the subtle shades and textures of leaves and the importance of shrubs and trees in providing necessary background and depth of field. This program will explore principles and strategies to make compelling color design choices by delving into color wheel theory, exploring color combinations, enhancing vibrant seasonal changes and discovering the beauty of the cold color contrast of winter.
