United States of America -- Illinois -- Cook County -- Winnetka
Scope and Contents:
The folder includes work sheets, copies of the Rocco Fiore & Sons landscape plan with plant lists, a copy of a biographical sketch of O. C. Simonds, and other information.
General:
This garden is an amalgam of designs by Oehme, van Sweden & Associates (hardscape) and Rocco Fiore & Sons (plant material), but is also akin to the design concepts of O. C. Simonds, an influential practitioner in the Winnetka area in the early 20th century. Located in an historic hickory and swamp oak grove, the garden is bordered by white pines, hemlock, and Norwegian spruce that provide privacy as well as a backdrop for garden vistas. The gardens are planned to be low maintenance and to have continual flowering throughout the growing season. Trees and shrubs include Norwegian maple, sugar maple, saucer magnolia, star magnolia, Japanese lilac, hawthorn, flowering crabapple, viburnum, hydrangea, forsythia, and witch hazel. Perennials, planted in a "quilt" pattern, include purple coneflower, rudbeckia, daylilies, roses, ornamental grasses, hosta, and astilbe.
Persons and firms associated with the garden include: Rocco Fiore & Sons (landscape architects, 1998 to date); Oehme, van Sweden & Associates (landscape architects, 1996); and Mr. and Mrs. Hugh Campbell (former owners, 1966-1996).

United States of America -- Kentucky -- McCracken -- Paducah
Scope and Contents:
The folder includes worksheets, a photocopy of an article, and additional images.
General:
In 2013 an unused twenty by forty foot plot between their church and newly built chapel became a new garden project for members of the congregation and local garden club. A contemporary bronze sculpture stands at the far end, backed by the church's stained glass window that evokes a patchwork quilt, in acknowledgment of Paducah's quilting tradition and National Quilt Museum. A limestone wall fountain surrounded by twenty original cast bas-relief religious plaques that depict mysteries of the rosary bisects one wall. Fourteen small stained glass windows representing works of mercy are set into the other long wall. Since the garden is shaded from the east and west the plant selection includes boxwood, hydrangea, espaliered magnolia, pachysandra and annuals. A patchwork of grass and limestone flagstones is the floor of this meditative garden room. Additional features include three teakwood benches. The Rosary Garden was included in the Paducah Garden Club 2015 Mayfair garden tour.
Persons associated with the garden include: Linda M. Ogden (tile and bronze bas-relief sculptor, 2013- ); Karen Schmidt ("Holy Family" sculptor).
