Hanna Rion

During her relatively short life, Hanna Rion (1874-1924) achieved distinction not only as one of the most popular garden writers of the early 20th century but also as a musician, painter, and writer of fiction. Her lively and witty writing style, uniquely her own, has made The Garden in the Wilderness (1909) and Let's Make a Flower Garden (1912) classics of the "garden fever era" of the early 1900s. Less appreciated is the great variety of her literary accomplishments. Beyond
