"Vanessa Gardner Nagel ‘s seminar on ‘Understanding Basic Design Principles’ at the 2010 Northwest Flower & Garden Show received rave reviews from the audience. Using humor and a relaxed manner, she discussed the principles of garden design
in a well-organized fashion that both beginners and more experienced gardeners could grasp. Her images reinforced the concepts perfectly. “She’s an excellent teacher, and she will likely write a good book” wrote one audience reviewer.
“She was great - have her back!” said another. She will definitely be returning as a garden show speaker next year!."
Janet Endsley, Northwest Flower and Garden Show
