Creating a garden to mark the 100th anniversary of an arboretum is a daunting task that takes planning, creativity, generous donors and a construction team that can stay on a tight timeline. The audience will receive an overview of planning, designing, building and maintaining the new Gerard T. Donnelly Grand Garden at The Morton Arboretum. The presentation will provide a behind the scene look into the design process, the artistic details, construction, sourcing of plants and the maintenance challenges of completing a new garden in the middle of an existing Arboretum. Meet with the Morton Arboretum staff responsible with leading this process through design, installation and maintenance.
