Garden Secrets of Bunny Mellon is for anyone who has enjoyed time spent in a garden—from aspiring garden makers to those who manage large estates. This collection is comprised of extracts from Bunny’s own writings and garden notes, as well as photographs and drawings from her archive.
Chapters are organized by atmosphere (sky, horizon, shadows), climate, light, space, shape, maintenance, and more. Readers will feel as if Bunny Mellon has come alongside them as a gardening guide and friend.
Bunny Mellon was part of the affluent class and, along with her husband, Paul Mellon, moved in the circles of East Coast gentry during the Kennedy and Reagan eras. But Mrs. Mellon—as she was respectfully called by the professional gardeners who worked most closely with her—was never afraid to get her hands dirty in the rich soil of her family’s Virginia farm.
