Robinson will read from her book “Rosemary Verey: The Life & Lessons of a Legendary Gardener” which was published last onhealthy zyrtec online year. She worked as a gardener for Rosemary Verey at Barnsley House, a mandatory stop on every garden tour in the 1980s and 1990s and now a hotel/resort.
A hands-in-the-dirt gardener herself, Robinson and her husband created their own gardens at Brush Hill in northwestern Connecticut, featured in articles, books, and on television.
The event will begin with an open stroll through the Conservatory from 6:00-6:30pm, followed by Robinson’s talk and book signing from 6:30-8:00pm.
