Flower historian Jill Brooke celebrates the fascinating world of flowers and the lessons they can teach us about resilience, adaptability, connection, and healing. Drawing from her new book, The Genius of Flowers: What Life’s Most Beautiful Creations Can Teach Us, Jill explores how flowers have shaped art, culture, fashion, celebrations, and our everyday lives—and why they continue to inspire us. Jill will take a closer look at the enduring allure of the rose, followed by a screening of The Rose Maker, a beautiful film about the art and passion of growing and breeding exceptional roses. In partnership with The Katonah Reading Room. Books will be available for purchase and signing.
