2025 National Speaking Tour with Ngoc Minh Ngo, Daniels Family Garden Lecture
Talk begins at 3 p.m. followed by a reception at 4 p.m.
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 colors; their perfume is ineffable. After three thousand years of cultivation, the rose continues to seduce. This is the subject of acclaimed photographer and writer Ngoc Minh Ngo’s newest and most personal book yet, Roses in the Garden. Join Ngo and the Garden Conservancy’s President and CEO James Brayton Hall for a conversation about Ngo’s passion for roses and photography, and how these interests developed for Ngo as a Vietnamese refugee growing up in California. The talk will include discussion of the nature and culture of the rose and the horticultural art it has inspired, and Ngo's favorite rose gardens in various locations spanning the globe; preeminent gardens in England, France, Italy, Spain, Morocco, and Japan, as well as the United States. Roses in the Garden will be published in Spring 2025.
