Design Like Charles Faudree: In Your Garden

Garden Design inspiration is all around you, inside your home.  I must see inside your home, to design your garden.  More than views on axis into the garden, interior design layers too.

One Garden Design conceit shouts at first glance.  On the buffet.  Pure Garden Design.

Tall hedge or espalier shrubs, pair of understory trees, low hedge.  Total copy of the painting, lamps, flotsom/jetsom.  Have known to copy interior design, into Garden Design, for decades.  No one told me, never saw it in a book, pure Garden Design Whisperer.

You're probably the same, yet never verbalized this, or took action steps.

I think his were the first design books I ever bought, or maybe Mary Randolph Carter's were first. Getting up now to go look at my tabletops!

A wonderful post and sweet tribute the wonderful Mr Faudree; I will miss him always...but thinking of him in my garden is sweeter still. Thank you, Tara!
