SUMMARY:Winter Celebration: “A Garden Inferior to Few…” The Williamsburg Garden of John Custis IV
DESCRIPTION:Due to expected inclement weather affecting speaker travel\, Winter Celebration has been rescheduled to Sunday\, March 22.\nCelebrate America 250 with an exploration of sophisticated garden that is globally influenced but American in execution. \nJohn Custis IV is one of Williamsburg\, Virginia’s more colorful historic residents. In addition to being an influential member of the political elite\, a wealthy plantation owner\, and eventually the first father-in-law of Martha Washington\, Custis was the creator of one of the most renowned colonial gardens of the early 18th century. Custis’ indulgence in ornamental garden design resulted in the creation of a pleasure garden said to rival that of the Royal Governor. Known as Custis Square\, the four-acre garden was said to contain gravel paths\, topiary\, hundreds of native and imported plant varieties\, and even statues. Friendships with gardening luminaries such as John Bartram and Peter Collinson opened up Custis to a global palette of plants and the correspondence between these “brothers of the spade” has revealed much about the plants within the garden. However\, the actual appearance and layout has remained a mystery… until now. The Colonial Williamsburg Foundation has just concluded a five-year archaeological excavation to uncover this important lost landscape.  \nWe will explore the evidence gathered through excavation and specialized environmental analysis to discover the design for the garden\, revealing a truly baroque layout. From the locations of individual fruit trees to the evidence for large-scale earthmoving to create vistas\, the results of this research have provided details recorded nowhere else. Developed at a time of transformation in European garden fashions\, studying Custis’ garden provides an opportunity to better understand how elite Americans translated new landscape conventions into a different cultural and environmental setting. The result is a sophisticated garden that is globally influenced but American in execution. \nEvent schedule:  \n3:00 pm – Lecture  \n4:00 pm – Reception with hors d’oeuvres and cash bar \nAfter the lecture\, mix and mingle with the speaker during the reception.  \nFor an easy dinner\, make a reservation at the Broad Table Tavern. Members of the Scott Associates receive a 15% discount at the Broad Table Tavern (discount not valid on alcoholic beverages). \nAdvance registration for this event is closed. Walk-in registrations will be accepted. Bring exact cash ($25)\, check\, or card for payment. Call 610-328-8024 with questions. \nProgram Details \n\nAdvance registration is required.\nLimited to 150 people.\nEmail us if you have accessibility needs for this program.\nFor more information\, review our program and event policies or call the Scott office at 610-328-8025.\n\nAbout the Presenter \nJack Gary is the associate vice president for historic resources for the Colonial Williamsburg Foundation. He leads a team of archaeologists\, curators\, architects\, and scholars to reveal the hidden stories of Williamsburg’s past. He is currently directing the archaeological research for the restoration of the garden of John Custis IV as well as the research into Williamsburg’s First Baptist Church\, the oldest Black Church in the United States. Jack oversees a collection of over 60 million artifacts and the development and construction of the new Campbell Archaeology Center\, which will open in 2026 as the country’s premier archaeology museum. He is the former director of archaeology and landscapes for Thomas Jefferson’s Poplar Forest\, where he directed the archaeological research that led to the Garden Club of Virginia’s restoration of the ornamental landscape surrounding Jefferson’s villa retreat.  \nAbout ACCESS \nScott Arboretum & Gardens proudly participates in the Art-Reach ACCESS program. Pennsylvania ACCESS/EBT cardholders\, and Art-Reach ACCESS cardholders may receive $2 tickets for the cardholder and up to 3 guests.

SUMMARY:Scott Medal & Award Presentation
DESCRIPTION:Please join us in honoring Paul Redman\, President & CEO of Longwood Gardens\, as the recipient of the 2026 Scott Garden & Horticulture Medal and Award. \nIn-person registration includes attendance at the award presentation and reception at the Lang Performing Arts Center on the campus of Swarthmore College. \nAdvance in-person registration is now closed. Walk-ins welcome. Virtual registration will remain open through the event. \nVirtual Registration \nPaul B. Redman – 2026 Award Recipient \nScott Arboretum & Gardens proudly announces Paul B. Redman as the recipient of the 2026 Scott Garden & Horticulture Award\, recognizing a career that has profoundly shaped the art\, science\, and public experience of horticulture. \nSince assuming the role of President and Chief Executive Officer of Longwood Gardens during its centennial year in 2006\, Redman has led one of the most ambitious transformations in the history of American public gardens. Guided by a visionary 40-year master plan\, his leadership has positioned Longwood as a premier horticultural and educational institution of the 21st century—one dedicated to its enduring mission to bring joy to all people through the beauty of nature. \nUnder his tenure\, Longwood has more than doubled its annual attendance to 1.8 million visitors\, expanded membership nearly fivefold\, and become the most visited paid public garden in North America. \nRedman’s impact is evident across Longwood’s landscape including the East Conservatory Plaza and its landmark green wall\, the expansive Meadow Garden\, and the revitalized Main Fountain Garden. Most recently\, he oversaw the breathtaking 2024 reimagination of seventeen acres featuring a floating all-glass conservatory\, new garden spaces for bonsai and the Cascade Garden\, and expanded facilities for dining\, events\, and education. \nPlantsman Richard W. Lighty observed\, “Behind the scenes at Longwood\, Paul has led the revitalization and modernization of horticultural research and technology… It is his policy to share all these progressive techniques with the wider public garden world.” \nBeyond physical transformation\, Redman’s legacy is defined by education\, collaboration\, and stewardship. He has expanded horticultural conservation through Longwood at Granogue\, championed workforce development through internships and professional programs\, and helped found Seed Your Future\, a national initiative advancing horticulture awareness and careers. \n2014 Scott Medal & Award Winner Jane G. Pepper noted\, “Paul’s leadership extends beyond Longwood’s grounds… fostering design\, research\, conservation\, and the professional development of future horticulturists.” \nThrough more than three decades in public horticulture\, Paul B. Redman has made an indelible mark—cultivating landscapes\, institutions\, and generations of leaders. Scott Arboretum & Gardens is honored to recognize his extraordinary contributions with the 2026 Scott Medal and Award. \nTHE SCOTT GARDEN AND HORTCULTURE AWARD was established in 1929 to recognize individuals who\, in the opinion of the selection committee\, have made outstanding national contributions to the science and art of gardening. The 2026 award of the medal\, together with $20\,000\, is given as an acknowledgement of “. . . achievement of great merit\, recognition of work in creating and developing a wider interest in gardening.” \nTHE SCOTT MEDAL\, designed by American sculptor Walker Hancock\, represents man cultivating the ground\, lifting his arms high above him as if to call down inspiration to mingle with the water that pours from the vase. The water falls on two motifs\, the tree peony and the iris. The reverse side shows the tree of life. \nARTHUR HOYT SCOTT (1873-1927)\, an 1895 graduate of Swarthmore College and a successful manufacturer\, maintained an abiding love of beautiful gardens throughout his busy life. He was at one time treasurer of the American Peony Society\, a founder and treasurer of the American Iris Society\, and a breeder of irises and peonies. Scott Arboretum & Gardens\, through its educational programs and displays of plants\, continues Arthur Hoyt Scott’s vision. \nProgram Details \n\nAll registrations include access to the virtual live stream.\nIn-person registration is limited to 600. Due to limited seating\, virtual registrants cannot attend in person. \nRegistration is free and encouraged. \nEmail us if you have accessibility needs for this program.\nFor more information\, review our program and event policies or call the Scott Arboretum office at 610-328-8025.
