    Women in Horticulture

Celebrating a century of achievement, this fascinating display looks at the highlights of the careers of a series of talented women working in horticulture. The displays feature women who are represented within RHS Libraries' original art and photographic collections. They include information on Gertrude Jekyll, Ellen Wilmot, Marion Cran, Dorothy Martin and Constance Spry. As educators, scientists, artists, writers and gardeners these women have changed the way we garden and left behind an enduring legacy.
