Do drop by http://flickr.com/photos/pegridgway to see the photos taken at the Virginia Robinson home and gardens in Beverly Hills during the Friends of Robinson Gardens’ annual garden tour. The rooms and surrounding areas were decorated so beautifully by floral designers including Michael Daniels of Silver Birches, Marc Byrd, Lucas Design Group, etc. Check out the photos.

We Are Rockin’

The Sending Flowers to America slideshow and talk is going over BIG with local libraries and historical societies. We are so pleased that 11 groups have enjoyed it and raved about it, and 6 more are coming up.

Oh, and Peggi Ridgway will guest on “Home Wizards” AM 870 radio with host Cindy Dole this Saturday morning - from 8 to 9 a.m. Be sure to tune in and enjoy. We’ll be giving a book away to a lucky caller!

It was a great day with floral designers and decorators as Jan Works and Peggi Ridgway did a book-signing at the Virginia Robinson Gardens in Beverly Hills on Fri., May 15, 2009. The Sending Flowers to America was the featured book for the event and a portion of the proceeds helped the Friends of Robinson Gardens, which maintains the estate.  What a beautiful place - Virginia Robinson’s estate was the first estate to be built in Beverly Hills, around 100 years ago.

Designs are posted on Peggi’s FACEBOOk page.
