The Parrish Art Museum’s Landscape Pleasures Showcases Five Stunning Gardens

The Parrish Art Museum’s Landscape Pleasures ended on Sunday with self-guided tours of five private gardens in East Hampton, Sagaponack and Bridgehampton. Hamptons.com visited all five gardens, each one different and all of them exceptional.

 

East Hampton

 

When the current owner purchased this narrow 4-acre property it was overgrown and full of weeds. Now a peaceful, calm feeling pervades the beautiful landscape. A long, gated driveway leads to the home. Past the gate a sunny meadow of wildflowers and grasses was abloom with coreopsis and daisies. A path through the meadow leads to a stately oak tree surrounded by a lawn. Closer to the house are beds and borders of perennials and shrubs, in a series of garden rooms with trees, shrubs and flowers. A terrace off the rear of the home overlooks the pool and the meadow beyond.

 

East Hampton

 

Historic home was built in 1900 and was part of an original summer colony. Enter through a gated hedge to a brick courtyard with beds of pachysandra, hardy geranium and shrubs leading to the front porch. A brick path to the right turns toward the rear of the property, and passes several magnificent tall trees – a stately Magnolia grandiflora, three hollies in a bed near the house, and a towering weeping purple beech surrounded by a perfectly square bed of ivy centering the space. A gate opens to a courtyard and perfectly shaped hedges line a stone walkway to the pool area. A brick walk lined with pots of hydrangeas leads to the pool house, and to the left is a weeping purple beech tree and bench. There are flowers, too – hostas, hellebores, Japanese anemone, yellow wax bells, lady’s mantle and ajuga.

 

East Hampton

 

This striking waterfront contemporary has sweeping views over Georgica Pond. The home is united with its setting by carefully considered landscaping that integrates the home into the site. The clean lines of the home are complimented by plantings of trees and shrubs, and ornamental grasses adding softness. In front of the house on the right a combination of golden yuccas and purple meadow sage adds dramatic color. In back of the house grasses spill over a wall. Close to the water some blue flag iris add a note of color. A path through switch grass leads to the swimming pool. And for those who walked onto the front porch and peeked through the front door revealed a central courtyard with a Japanese garden.

 

Sagaponack

 

Upon entering this property you are struck by the truly majestic, towering old trees here. They just take your breath away. There are Katsura, purple beech, weeping birch. Alongside the house are flowering shrubs – spiraea, and rhododendron, as well as evergreens. An arbor leads to the backyard where there’s a border with alliums, foxgloves and Calycanthus (also known as Carolina allspice for its fragrant dark red flowers). There are peonies, spiraea and nepeta, and beautiful large dogwoods. On one side of the home is what remains of a huge Paulownia, or empress tree, on the ground, with a newer one growing nearby. The same family has lived here since the 1980s, and they take devoted care of the gardens and the venerable trees on the property, using organic chemical-free practices.

 

Bridgehampton

 

A classic shingled home is located on this long, narrow property where the owners have made inspired use of the space. The backyard is a series of garden “rooms,” each different and designed for a different purpose. In the garden closest to the house neat, low hedges define beds of shrubs. A shallow reflecting pool surrounded by bluestone patio has a plashing central fountain.  In the second room of the garden there’s a cottage. A pathway of stone slabs passes through neatly clipped round shrubs, blooming Lenten rose and white bleeding heart.

 

The third garden room contains a wonderful butternut tree which centers the property, tall hedges, and a swimming pool with lounges on two stone patios, one on either side of the pool. The pool house has walls of glass that can be opened to become a delightful pavilion for entertaining, and there is seating on a stone patio beneath a wisteria-covered arbor.

  • Local Klyph Black and His 50 Years of Live East End Music

There is a musical elegance when watching Klyph Black perform on stage, whether alone or with longtime buddy John Sparrow. There is no doubt that being a musician is his life’s passion. His soul is connected to music from the tones and licks of the blues masters to the chords and songs of the Grateful Dead. He also has a body of original works including a newly released collaboration with another east end legend, Joe Delia, available on iTunes titled, “All Night Blues.” However, Klyph has been both a witness and a participant of the last 50 years of live music scene on the east end.

  • Talkhouse Encore Bottles Up the Stephen TalkHouse Experience

The Stephen Talkhouse in Amagansett is an iconic bar that has been putting on major national acts. Over 65 members of the Rock N’ Roll Hall of Fame have played there and every year more notable acts are added to the roster. In 2020, along with so many, the Talkhouse was rocked when the pandemic hit. The doors were closed and the soda streams were turned off. It was during that scary and lonely time that Ruby Honerkamp came up with the idea of Talkhouse Encore, a RTD canned cocktail that would bring the endless party experience to everyone around the world. @talkhousebar @talkencore

  • East Hampton Town Airport Drama Continues

East Hampton Town Airport never had the opportunity to enact its plan to close and reopen the airport under new usage rules last May 17th. At the last minute an injunction paused that plan from going into effect. As of now it is business as usual. New reports have the EH Town officials exploring ways to legally shut down the airport. One has to wonder is this what they really want or is this a ploy that has originated because of the frustration of not being in actual control of the outcome of their own town asset?

  • Sixty-Something: Every Day on the Water is an Endless Dream

I was just sailing in Gardiner’s Bay this last week. The sun was setting in the west over Shelter Island with its always pleasing brilliant colors. The breeze was refreshingly pleasant and just strong enough to propel the sailboat gently through the bay. If this almost sounds like a dream, it is. A dream that comes true for all sailors whenever they can get out on their rigs.
