Roses in the Garden - Talk & Lunch
No other floral genus has greater variety and enticement than the rose. They blossom in an endless variety of shapes and a surprising spectrum of colours; their perfume is ineffable. After three thousand years of cultivation, the rose continues to seduce.
At Thyme this spring, celebrated photographer Ngoc Minh Ngo, and Garden Editor Clare Foster explore the beauty, history and culture of this remarkable flower, visiting many of the places that served as inspiration for Roses in the Garden, from the most romantic garden in the world to the Rose Garden of Sakura.
Included in the ticket price is a welcome refreshment. Following the talk there will be time for an audience Q&A and a book signing with Ngoc Minh Ngo.
