THE GARDEN OF MAUDISM  Garden House Gallery   Table Top Gardens  Story of St Rita

 

 

 

The garden of Maudism is named to honor the character of Maude in the movie Harold and Maude. Just as a religious leader puts a name to a religion, Ruth Gordon's character put a face to the spirit of Maudism which is very much natural pantheism. lf you are a Maudist, you know it. You know who you are. You know it the minute you see the movie. There are a lot of us out there. The garden has three entrances through arbors that take you to the inner garden that is entered through three red portals that represent Truth, Art, and Beauty. In the center is a table top garden with a miniature cemetery because Maude liked cemeteries.  I am far from the city and at night it can be total darkness or the garden can be enchanting by the light of a full moon on a summer night.
