The Oak Spring Garden Foundation, situated on the former estate of Rachel Lambert Mellon, is dedicated to advancing the study and appreciation of gardens, landscapes, and the arts. Its interdisciplinary residencies provide practitioners from diverse fields the opportunity to engage with its living collections, archives, and grounds. This particular course, 'From Wild Origins to Oak Spring: An Immersive Course in Garden Bulbs,' will convene from Monday, March 8, to Friday, March 12, 2027, under the instruction of Jason Delaney. The residency is designed for those whose work intersects with horticulture, botany, landscape design, and the visual or literary arts. Participants will immerse themselves in the study of geophytes—bulbous plants—tracing their wild origins and their cultivation at Oak Spring. The program combines hands-on exploration, lectures, and independent study, allowing residents to develop new work or research within a supportive and historically rich environment. The Foundation's commitment to cross-disciplinary dialogue means that artists, writers, and scholars are encouraged to apply their unique perspectives to the subject matter. There is no application fee, and the residency covers the cost of participation, including accommodations and meals. This opportunity is best suited for individuals who can demonstrate a serious engagement with the themes of the course and who will benefit from the concentrated time and resources that Oak Spring provides. The selection committee seeks applicants whose projects align with the Foundation's mission and who show promise for contributing to the broader conversation around gardens and their cultural significance.
