On The Road – Timeless Gardens of the Northwest’s First Female Landscape Designers

Posted by gnite721@gmail.com | April 19, 2018

MASTER GARDENER PROGRAM — Workshops & Events
White Victorian home with many windows and angles set in beautiful garden.

Northwest’s first female landscape architects, Elizabeth Lord & Edith Schryver began their business and moved into their home in 1929. We’ll view their home and gardens at Gaiety Hollow where we will meander through the Entry Garden, Grape Pergola, Tea Garden and the Spring Garden – which will be in bloom while we are there.

After lunch, we journey through the Deepwood Estate gardens, a property designed by Lord & Schryver with formal garden rooms embellished with arches, arbors, pergolas, ornamental gates and brick walkways.

Last stop; three-acre Bosky Dell Natives, where you can “Create a backyard sanctuary for yourself and your backyard neighbors.” Plan for plant shopping here. Sturdy shoes suggested.
