May 2015 Meeting

Our last meeting of this 2014-2015 season. Sharon Yiesla gave us a great presentation called "Design Your Own Garden". Sharon owns her own business "Sharon Yiesla Horticultural Services" based in Lisle. She received her BS in Horticulture from Purdue and her MS in Horticulture form U of Illinois, and has a very strong background in education of Horticulture in various settings including the Chicago Botanic Garden. Sharon also has a wonderful sense of humor that makes her presentation fun.
We were told about basic design elements of form, texture  and color, plus basic design principles of repetition, variety, balance, emphasis and scale. Sharon had good slides to show as examples of all these things.
