He has been called the “Rembrandt of gardens”, the masterful Dutch designer behind the Olympic Park in London, the High Line in New York and countless other green spaces around the world, bringing a sense of wilderness into cultivated and urban settings.
Now Piet Oudolf, 79, one of the most influential gardeners of modern times, has redesigned one of his famous horticultural tapestries, the Glasshouse borders at the Royal Horticultural Society’s flagship Wisley garden in Surrey, in the UK. The two-acre space, which he has redeveloped 20 years after he created them, will open to the public next month.
