Minnie Aumonier (1865-1952) was an English writer and artist who wrote and illustrated three books of garden poetry in the 1920s and 1930s. She also painted water colours and produced greeting cards and postcards.
ReplyDeleteMinnie’s best known quotes today are:
“When the world wearies and society ceases to satisfy, there is always the garden”; and
“There is always music amongst the trees in garden, but our hearts must be very quiet to hear it”.
These quotes are from two of Minnie’s greeting cards that were reprinted by her book publisher in the 1980s.
Wonderful! Thanks for sharing.
