Like Gertrude Jekyll and Thomas Church before him, Hartlage contributes to an ongoing dialogue among garden makers. Entrusting a vision where artistry together with a sense of adventure result in uniquely personal garden spaces, Hartlage assumes the role of guide to budding green thumbs and mentor to ambitious horticulturists who could benefit from a jump start. A range of possibilities must be reckoned with before setting out to create a garden. But boundless prospects can be overwhelming, so Hartlage breaks it down. How is the garden to be used?
