Happy World Wildlife Day! To celebrate, we’re sharing an important tip from Oak Spring’s own Wildlife Specialist, Josh Rector. 🪹 Bluebirds start looking for places to nest quite early in the year, so now is a great time to clean out your bluebird boxes, or hang some up if you don’t have any! But, there is a non-native bird that is quite aggressive and tries to outcompete our other native species like the bluebird. Enter the house sparrow. They’re quite aggressive in nature and will try to build

In honor of Invasive Species Awareness week, we had a quick chat with our head of Biodiversity Conservation, Charlotte Lorrick, about a common invasive species Oak Spring manages: Japanese Honeysuckle. Birds frequently drop seeds along the fence line and it spreads into patches throughout the landscape. Although treating the invasive species is important, what’s not talked about enough is what we’re managing ‘for,’ not just ‘against.’ We aren’t just getting rid of invasives, we’re trying to make

It was at Oak Spring, the home of philanthropist and style icon Bunny Mellon, that imagination flourished for legendary designer Jean Schlumberger. Her renowned gardens, expansive art collection and curated library inspired many of his designs, including one of the House’s most enduring symbols: the Bird on a Rock. Over six decades later, that legacy continues with new creations from Chief Artistic Officer Nathalie Verdeille—presented in the place that started it all. Collection of the Virginia

Philanthropist, style maker, and renowned gardener Rachel Lambert “Bunny” Mellon was not formally trained as a horticulturist or landscape designer. However, her natural curiosity, exquisite taste, and disciplined practice, made her much sought after by anyone who wanted a gorgeous garden much like the ones she created on her estates - including President John F. Kennedy. In this episode of the White House 1600 Sessions, Stewart McLaurin, President of the White House Historical Association, trav

de Gournay on Instagram: "The hand-painted ‘Oak Spring’ porcelain pieces within the Bunny Mellon Collection borrow their depictions of flowers from the work of Charles Germain de Saint-Aubin, artist of King Louis XV, found within the Oak Spring Garden Library. Framed by an exuberant outer rim of floral sprigs and a basket weave-patterned inner rim, each finely painted central flower can be chosen from a selection of over one hundred different species - many of them Mrs. Mellon’s favourites - inc

Clif reflects on his early years working for Mrs. Mellon, when the property was still shaped by horse meadows and Thoroughbred breeding. He shares how Mrs. Mellon taught him to see trees not just as plantings, but as sculptural forms—guiding him in pruning techniques that shap

Oak Spring Garden Foundation on Instagram: "Ever wonder how spring shows up right on time at Oak Spring (or maybe a little early 😉)? Our head gardener Allissa takes us behind the scenes of forcing bulbs—starting in the cooler, moving into the light, and then center stage in the formal greenhouse. We’re starting with snow drops, iris, daffodils, and cyclamen..with tulips coming next! Garden magic takes patience (and a lot of temperature changes). 🌱 #bunnymellon #forcedbulbs #oakspringgarden"
