The winter garden is a truly low maintenance affair and a time to enjoy – no weeding, no watering and no deadheading! The winter landscape may be quiescent, but the garden need not be bleak. Plants with brightly colored berries, twigs, stems, foliage and even winter-blooming flowers shrug off the snow and cold. Landscape horticulturist Warren Leach, author of Plants for the Winter Garden, will showcase gardens he has designed that celebrate the winter season as well as planting design ideas for your own garden.
Warren Leach is a passionate plant collector, nurseryman, horticulturist, and landscape designer with a depth of knowledge of all garden plants including perennials, tropical, temperate and woody plants. For more than 35 years, Leach has been creating landscapes throughout New England as well as making captivating and education display gardens at Tranquil Lake Nursery in Rehoboth, MA. Leach is an award-winning landscape designer and has taught horticulture and landscape design at numerous horticultural institutions.
