Digging Deep: The Influence of Garden Literature
Presented by The Garden Conservancy
Southern gardens conjure up images of live oak allées dripping with Spanish moss, formal boxwood parterres, colorful banks of azaleas, and signature plants such as camellias, dogwoods, and magnolias. Many of these elements prevalent in different regions of the South are actually based on landscape traditions in England, France, and Italy, popularized via a host of botanical and gardening books over the past several centuries, from colonial times to the modern era.
Garden creators who looked to period literature for inspiration included two icons of the eighteenth century, Thomas Jefferson and George Washington. Jefferson coveted his copy of Batty Langley’s Pomona: or, the Fruit-Garden Illustrated . . . (1729) and used it when developing his orchard at Monticello. George Washington owned Langley’s New Principles of Gardening (1728), which influenced the design of the grounds at Mount Vernon. And both men also relied on Philip Miller’s seminal eighteenth-century work, The Gardeners Dictionary.
In a few other examples, nineteenth-century nurseryman Jarvis Van Buren embraced the work of Andrew Jackson Downing (1815-1852) when he created his manor, Woodlands, in Clarkesville, Georgia in the late 1840s; and the influence of the writings of William Robinson (1838-1935) is still visible today at Reynolda in Winston-Salem, North Carolina, along the estate’s entrance drive.
Cherokee Garden Library director Staci Catron (short bio) will be covering a variety of such books that influenced Southern landscape design.
The lecture coincides with the concurrent exhibition, “Gardening by the Book: Celebrating 100 Years of The Garden Club of America,” on display in the lecture hall of the Grolier Club through July 27, 2013. The significant books mentioned above are just a few of the works that will be featured in the exhibition, selected from the Garden Club of America’s own collection of rare publications. 2013 marks the 100-year anniversary of the GCA. Scroll through a gallery of images from the exhibition.
