Louis has appeared as a guest on GardenSmart, segments of Martha Stewart’s television show, and recently offered gardening tips on Margaret Roach’s podcast.

In this talk, Louis Bauer will explore the different areas of the grounds- the flower garden, shade border, wild garden, conservatory, and more- and provide helpful information on the plants, techniques, and design choices that define this iconic space.
