Gardens of Maude & John Odgers
Maude is drawn to using unusual combinations of trees, shrubs, perennials, and annuals in creating interesting textures and harmony of color, light, movement, and design. Her gardens draw inspiration from English border gardens, and her work as an artist. For her, gardening is painting in motion. A soft palette and flowing shapes are used to create a sense of serenity. Stone walls and granite pieces complement the New England countryside. Maude and John cleared this land more than 40 years ago, designing and building everything themselves-from the house, with an attached garden room, to a small post-and-beam barn (now garden shed), arbors, unusual undulating wooden fences with moon gates, a bluestone patio that emulates the gardens' shapes, an enclosed raised-bed vegetable garden, a frog pond-along with the many garden beds that envelop their home. Their garden has been featured in numerous publications. Garden is partially accessible.
