New Works
Raymond Jungles opens the garden gate to his latest projects


Coconut Grove, FL – Join us on Thursday, November 19 for The Kampong’s Lecture Series when Raymond Jungles shares his "New Works." The Kampong will open at 6:30 p.m. with a reception sponsored by Whole Foods Market. The lecture begins at 7 p.m. Tickets for the public are available with a suggested donation of $10. Please call (305) 442-7169. Kampong Members are free.

A Jungles-designed garden is instantly recognizable for its botanical richness and naturalism. Through the use of native plant species, in combination with the subtropical aesthetic, Jungles creates projects, places, and spaces that comfort the human psyche and raise the human spirit. Jungles will share his latest projects with a rare, behind-the-scenes glimpse in this hour-long lecture.

Raymond Jungles is the recipient of more than twenty Design Awards from the Florida Chapter of the American Society of Landscape Architects. He was elected a Fellow of the American Society of Landscape Architects in 2006.
