Book Signing with Miranda Janatka

19/03/2023 12:00 pm – 19/03/2023 2:00 pm | Burford Garden Centre

We are delighted to announce that gardening and horticultural author Miranda Janatka will be appearing at the Reading Room on Mother’s Day, 19th March.

From 12.00pm until 2.00pm, Miranda will be signing copies of her beautiful book A Flower A Day. Perfect as a personalised gift on this significant day, pop along to meet Miranda and share your love of flowers, as she inscribes a copy with a special message for your loved one.

Miranda is the Senior Content Creator for BBC Gardeners’  World Magazine. She graduated from the Courtauld Institute of Art and has worked as a Botanical Horticulturist at the Royal Botanic Gardens, Kew.

In her book, A Flower A Day, Miranda presents us with fascinating stories and images of flowering plants for each day of the year. Revealing more than just their beauty, we learn about their historical, folkloric and literary importance within society, from the specific perfumed rose that flowers in Grasse, France to the inspiration behind William Wordsworth’s ‘host of golden daffodils’. This compilation covers both native and exotic flowers, and uses a mix of photographs, artworks, and illustrations to chart the seasons and showcase the sheer diversity of the natural world. Captivating and entertaining, it is a beautiful companion, not just for the botanist, but will lift spirits daily as you turn the page to reveal today’s blooms.
