I REMEMBER GOING TO SEE THE MOVIE CAMELOT with my mother when I was 12. The movie/musical starred Richard Harris as King Arthur, Vanessa Redgrave as Queen Guinevere, and Franco Nero as Lancelot du Lac. The story—beautiful, romantic, and poignant—still evokes a sense of sadness in me all these years later. But what I really remember is the first thing my mother said when we got into her car. She asked, “What color would you say that movie was?” I don’t remember my answer, and that’s not the point. The point is, things are or can be seen as colors. I had never considered this. It changed the way I looked at life: green springs, blue summer beach days, red and gold falls, and gray and white winter scenes. I found…

Colorfully sophisticated with that elusive quality of dressy comfort, this New York apartment offers a polished femininity equally suited to the owner’s social events and to her young daughter’s tea parties. Some rooms are more formal than others, but the common threads are color, pattern, and a welcoming aura where everyone feels at home. “The apartment is right down the street from the daughter’s school,” says designer Lisa Henderson. “It’s the place everyone gathers when class gets out, so we didn’t want anything too old-fashioned or overly grand.” Lisa’s jumping-off point was the “Paradise” Bennison fabric on the living room club chairs. Its range of pinks, reds, purples, and shades of blue and green, along with warm bits of taupe, provided a palette that Lisa could incorporate throughout the house…

Flower: Tell us about yourself and your earliest experience with flowers. Anne Dickson: I was born and raised in Pittsburgh but, despite being in the heart of the city, our neighborhood had a small-town feel with a deep sense of community. My mother and father were avid gardeners, and we would spend weekends planting bulbs, raking leaves, and building lattices. Our yard was modest but always bursting with colorful blooms. After college, I moved to New York City to study interior design at Pratt Institute only to learn that fate had other plans for me. I was offered an amazing full-time job in the marketing department at Tommy Hilfiger! In my two years there, I helped promote fashion shows, new product lines, and company initiatives nationwide. I was involved in…

With a lifelong love of gardening, designer Charlotte Moss has long been intrigued with what draws people—especially women—into the world of horticulture. Some have made it their professions, while others have become enthusiasts, patrons, philanthropists, or simply weekend hobbyists. And then there are those who write about all things gardening. In her new column for FLOWER, Charlotte explores some of these women and the journeys that led to their passions for plants and flowers. She also has a forthcoming book with Rizzoli on the subject of gardening women set to release spring 2025.
