Theirsis a visual, tactile, fragrant language… Withevery season, its characters form and re-form inan intricate interplay of colors, textures, andshapes. Our role is to weave a fresh plot witheach garden we design. Utilizing classic princi-ples handed down by centuries of gardeners,we create a theme for each garden. To commu-nicate drama. Or, perhaps whimsy. Clear twiststhat pique the imagination.”

“Gardens to Go: Portable Color”

Sydney Eddison brings her exquisite sense ofcolor to container gardening. Eddison showshow to use containers to punctuate a garden,create garden rooms, or invigorate a tired area.Key to her approach is her sense of texture,color and scale.
