ach year, thousands of garden enthusiasts from all over the country come to Virginia for the annual Historic Garden Week—and for good reason. While every state in the Union enjoys spring in their own fashion, no one does it quite like Virginia.

Every April, the Garden Club of Virginia invites visitors to more than 250 of Virginia’s most beautiful gardens and private homes. Historic Garden Week in Virginia is the oldest and largest statewide event of its kind in the country and gives those lucky souls who come to our Commonwealth a week-long chance to see unforgettable gardens and stately homes while the peak colors of spring are in full bloom.

Over the last 83 years, the proceeds from the Historic Garden Week have gone to restoring or preserving many of Virginia’s most cherished historic landmarks, including Monticello, Montpelier and the University of Virginia to name a few.

The 225-page Historic Garden Week Guide Book provides details on every stop of the tour throughout the Commonwealth. We are highlighting the tours in Albemarle County, with descriptions taken from that Guide Book.

Chopping Bottom Farm Named Metropolitan Home’s “House of the Year” in 2002, Chopping Bottom is a stylized farmhouse with multiple modules that mimic outbuildings. The minimalist look of the exterior continues inside the house where an all glass wall frames a stunning view of the Southwest Mountains. Maples line the drive.

Chinese elms bracket the 70 ft. lap pool. Crabapples flank the house and cedars surround the courtyard.

Cutting gardens provide a plentiful array of flowers. A large shade garden is sited alongside the stream that gives the property its name. House, grounds and studio will be open.

East Belmont Farm East Belmont dates back to the early 1800s and is listed with the Virginia Landmark Register and the National Register of Historic Places. The main house sits on a knoll with lovely views in all directions. Old Kentucky Coffee trees and boxwoods surround it. A gated formal garden and a colorful cutting garden provide a graceful transition from house to barnyard.

Round Hill Farm Overlooking the Southwest Mountains, the Williamsburg-inspired house is surrounded by 25 acres of gardens, native landscaping and horse paddocks. The house reflects the un-

derstated elegance of a Virginia-vernacular farmhouse. The owners commissioned a master landscape plan for the farm resulting in a variety of flowerbeds, vegetable and herb gardens, a fruit orchard and a koi pond. Tom’s Garden, a one-acre organic vegetable garden with raised beds and underground irrigation, benefits not only family and friends, but the Blue Ridge Area Food Bank as well.

Keswick Hall The once country-house hotel features a golf course, designed

by Arnold Palmer and included in the Audubon Cooperative Sanctuary Program. A half-acre vineyard is planted with Petit Manseng grapes.

Beautifully tended kitchen gardens provide vegetables for Keswick Hall.

History buffs and art enthusiasts will enjoy the estate’s extensive collection of art and antiques.

Keswick Hunt Club The Keswick Hunt Club, founded in 1896, has hosted at least one annual horse show since 1904. The kennels are home to 70 American Foxhounds.

Grace Episcopal Church First known as the Middle or Belvoir Church, and later as Walker’s Church, the original 1745 church was a square framed plastered and white washed wooden building. Foundation stones of the 1745 church and the old horse mounting stones are still visible. In 1845, William Strick-

land arrived to design a new building that burned in 1895. The current stone structure, built on the site of the 1855 church, was consecrated in 1896. The first Blessing of the Hounds service took place in 1929 and continues annually.

Oak Hill Farm An alee of wonderful old cedars and tulip poplar trees leads to the main house. Once a simple 1950s house, it was transformed into a stately mansion that evokes the elegance and grandeur of a much older age.

Enjoy the many vistas as you stroll the grounds. Sit in a rocking chair on the back patio and admire the Southwest Mountains, or linger in the garden rooms around the pool and rose gardens. And there’s so much more— each presenting a unique perspective, framed by the beautiful oak trees that give Oak Hill its name.

Morven Estate Gardens and House Morven is a three-story brick manor house built in the late-Georgian/ Federal style dating back to 1820. The land on which it sits was part of the original Carter family land grant and was known to Thomas Jefferson as “Indian Camp.” The 7,378-acre estate was given to the University of Virginia Foundation by the late John Kluge.

The original gardens were renovated in the 1930s and Mr. Kluge added more gardens. Look for unusual trees such as a pair of Osage orange trees, the state champion Chinese chestnut, and a lovely dove tree. Morven was a charter property open for the first Historic Garden Week in 1929 and is on the National Register of Historic Places and on the Virginia Landmarks Register.

This historic home and garden will be open on Saturday, April 21 from 10:00 a.m. to 5:00 p.m. Tickets are $15 in advance; $20 on day of tour. In case of rain and/or wet conditions, the tour will be canceled due to difficult parking conditions. Tickets are non-refundable, even if tour is canceled due to rain.

University of Virginia Pavilion Gardens & Activities Open Tuesday, April 24, admission to all activities and historic buildings at U.Va. is free of charge.

Founded by Thomas Jefferson and established in 1819 as an “Academical Village,” the University of Virginia is the only American university designated as a World Heritage site. It is also a National Historic Landmark and on the National Register of Historic Places and the Virginia Landmarks Register.

Above: The Pub at Oak Hill Right: Entrance to orchards at Round Hill Farm

The Garden Club of Virginia restored the University’s Pavilion Gardens and surrounding serpentine wall with proceeds from Historic Garden Week. Colonial Williamsburg landscape architects were hired to design the Colonial Revival gardens.

Work in the gardens continues to be supported by the Garden Club.

Visitors are encouraged to explore all the gardens and are invited into five of Jefferson’s Pavilions, which still provide faculty with living and teaching quarters.

Also open will be The Mary and David Harrison Institute for American History, Literature and Culture and the Albert and Shirley Small Special Collections Library. Eric Groft, a 1985 graduate of the University, designed the landscape surrounding the Library.

At 2:00 p.m. enjoy a special presentation: “The Dell: A Working Landscape Restored,” talk by internationally renowned landscape architect, Warren T. Byrd Jr., CLA. This stormwater management project has transformed a neglected marsh into a beautifully designed and ecologically diverse 11-acre valley.

Carr’s Hill is listed on the National Register of Historic Places and has been home to eight university presidents and their families. Carr’s Hill was part of the late 1890s to 1900s building campaign that also includ-

ed Cabell, Rouss, Cocke, and Garrett Halls and the Rotunda’s North Portico and interior. Master Gardener John Sauer, Carr’s Hill gardener, will give garden tours. All gardens and limited areas of the house are open.

Morea Gardens and Arboretum features large old trees and a beautifully landscaped botanical collection, started by the Albemarle Garden Club in 1965, surrounded by an historic Federal period house built by John Patten Emmet, one of the first professors chosen by Mr. Jefferson for the University. Morea is named after the mulberries Professor Emmet cultivated for experiments with silkworms.

Only the gardens are open.

University of Virginia Art Museum will also be open from noon to 5:00 p.m. with no admission fee.

Monticello & Ash Lawn-Highland Gardens were a passion of Jefferson’s, so it’s fitting that amateur gardeners can share that passion by visiting his home, Monticello, on Saturday, April 21, Monday, April 23 and Tuesday, April 24. There is an admission fee.

On Saturday, April 21 and Monday, April 23, both at 9:00 a.m., Thomas Jefferson’s Revolutionary Garden Tour will take place. This experiential tour of Jefferson’s vegetable and fruit garden includes a guided walk followed by a Meet the Gardener segment. Visitors will participate in gardening activities. Peter Hatch, di-

a beautifully illustrated book with color photographs. A more recent English take is The Kitchen Garden, by Alan Buckingham (DK, 2009). If you prefer a book specifically addressed to Americans, look at Designing the New Kitchen Garden: an American Potager Handbook, by Jennifer Bartley (Timber Press, 2006). Or browse the magazine rack. Garden magazines are bursting with how-to articles that mix leaf lettuce and lavender, rosemary and roses.

Even a small plot of ground can yield a healthy dividend, so long as it gets several hours of sun each day.

Plant species vary in their needs, so check labels and garden guides. At least four hours of direct sun are recommended. You may need to improve the soil, loosen packed clay, add humus or compost, or correct for too much acid or alkali, measured as pH.

The New

Kitchen Garden

by RobeRt boucheRon

Some urban reclamation schemes involve breaking up asphalt or concrete to get access to the soil.

Make sure that rainwater drains properly. Some plants are sensitive to overly wet or dry roots. They rot or harbor fungus in the wet condition.

Sandy soil that drains too quickly has the opposite drawback, and growth slows for lack of water. The raised bed is a way to ensure drainage, and incidentally make working in the garden easier. Depending on the neighborhood, you may need a fence to keep out visitors, both the

four-legged kind and your fellow citizens.

Older garden guides show neat rows of squash, beans, potatoes, corn and peas surrounded by bare earth.

They need constant weeding, spraying and watering, and such “monoculture” is now considered less healthy than “biodiversity.” Besides, the industrial aesthetic is passé. The new kitchen garden is informal, arranged to make the best use of small plots, and create landscape effects in limited space. Permaculture encourages you to combine species, use nat-

ural means of controlling pests, and use less water. Low maintenance is the goal. The keyhole bed, the spiral mound and the companion cluster are new garden forms.

Some people like the precise geometry of medieval garden beds, though.

What with seeds brought in by wind and birds, storm damage, and rapid summer growth, there is something to be said for neatness as an organizing tool. It can also be a way to combine garden and grass area in a small yard. Old methods of pruning, pleaching and espalier are useful for working fruit trees into your scheme.

An espaliered tree, attached to a wall that collects sun, is also a way to extend the growing season, or extend the hardiness zone of a species.

In some cases, private gardens perform a valuable public service by providing a haven for heirloom plants.

Some varieties are in danger of dying out, for example, fruits that have a shorter shelf life than grocery stores demand. Roses with strong perfume and brief blooming seasons are losing ground to showy, scentless roses that bloom all summer. Since the 1970s, commercial agriculture and seed companies like Monsanto have concentrated on a few varieties, not always the most nutritious or flavorful. The tomato is a case in point.

Two local sources deserve mention here. Southern Exposure Seed Exchange in Louisa, VA, is a farm and catalog operation that is “saving the past for the future.” Edible Landscaping in Afton, VA does online and catalog sales, and their nursery makes a wonderful day trip.

T

he kitchen garden is making a comeback.

There are farmers’ markets in every Virginia town, farm subscription plans (also called CSA), produce delivery services like Relay Foods, and community gardens like the ones at Friendship Court and West Street in Charlottesville. The local food movement is lively. What could be more local than your own back yard?

Or your front yard, if you live on Graves Street near the Belmont Bridge. Several residents here have planted streetside with cabbage, broccoli, asparagus, beets, raspberries and fruit trees. The vegetables coexist with box and privet hedges, roses and beds of iris. Ivette Soler wrote a book about this practice, The Edible Front Yard (Timber Press, 2011). Soler is a garden designer and writer in Los Angeles with a blog called Germinatrix. Her message is that with a little artistic help, veggies can have curb appeal.

With variations, the message crops up everywhere these days. While it overlaps with the city farm movement, also called urban agriculture, the new kitchen garden aims to look as good as it tastes. The English cottage garden and the French potager are models. They include fragrant herbs and colorful flowers along with vegetables for the pot. Food plants mingle with ornamentals, and some plants are both. The yard is both productive and a place to play, and refresh the senses.
