It could be said that a garden creates itself with a guiding hand. Joe Henderson’s ‘Coloring Book’ gardening philosophy is about making space for happy accidents, allowing your influences to be reflected in your designs, and thinking differently about color. Chanticleer’s Joe Henderson will share his ‘Coloring Book’ gardening philosophy with us on this program.

Anyone who’s been to Chanticleer has surely been wowed by the colorful displays of plants, and objects, throughout the garden – be they “happy accidents” or carefully defined plantings. Joe and his colleagues help Chanticleer live up to its name – “Chanticleer, A Pleasure Garden,” and to its reputation as perhaps” the most romantic, imaginative, and exciting public garden in America.” (https://www.chanticleergarden.org/)  

Speaker Bio: Joe Henderson is a Horticulturist at Chanticleer Garden, where he gardens the ponds, rock ledge, and Asian woodland, among other areas. Prior to receiving a BS in Ornamental Horticulture from the University of Delaware, Joe apprenticed as a jeweler, and still today works with glass, wood and metal to craft one-of-a-kind hardscape elements that complement the plantings and character of Chanticleer.
