I have read Alice Harding's two books on the peony and her lilac book, and would like to know anything about her garden and personal life. She gardened and distributed plants from Plainfield, NJ. As director of horticulture at Greenwood Gardens in Short Hills, NJ, I am using Alice's favorite plants to represent the original plants in our historic garden, which has no historic plant records. A little personal information about Alice Harding would aid interpretation of this idea.
