Revisit Spring Tour's Hannaston Garden May 11, 2011

Revisit this stunning "garden of earthly delights" with Ken Schoppet, the Los Altos based landscape architect who designed the garden. Learn how existing plantings were enlarged to suit the scale of the renovated house, specific plants hand-selected, and a color palette carefully chosen by the owners to achieve a sense of European elegance and history here in California. Because this class is held in a private garden, the size of the class is strictly limited and there will be no walkins.
The address of the garden will be given upon registration.

Ken Schoppet holds a B.S. degree in Landscape Architecture from U. C. Davis. He has been in private practice since 1988, with projects in Palo Alto, Los Altos, Woodside, Atherton, Portola Valley, and Carmel. He is best known for his residential design work, primarily on large estates. He has also done numerous commercial projects including the Main Entry Garden and Winner's Circle at the legendary Bay Meadows Race Track. His golf course design can be seen at Los Altos Golf and Country Club, La Rinconada Country Club,, and Saratoga Golf and Country Club. Ken lives in Los Altos with his wife and two young sons.
