For style icon Carolyne Roehm, the garden has always been a font of inspiration.  She draws from it for her trademark tablescapes, her gracious dinner parties, and her art-quality photographs.  At Home in the Garden (Potter Style, $85, hardcover, on sale October 27, 2015) sees Roehm conducting a beguiling tour of her historic Connecticut residence’s gardens. These 59 acres are Carolyne’s personal ode to beauty, and very much an extension of herself.  Get ready to gasp over the photos in this book garden lovers − this may be Roehm’s best book yet!

A true working garden, the book covers not just the picturesque topiary and cutting gardens but also the orchard, vegetable patch, greenhouse, garden layouts and furniture.  Perhaps her proudest achievement is her new role as photographer.  Roehm took all 400 plus images, along with the inclusion of her own floral watercolor paintings inspired by the garden.  While Roehm’s previous book, Flowers, focused on the magnificence of individual botanicals,  At Home in the Garden broadens the lens to display her stunning gardens as a well curated collection.

Carolyne shares personal reflections about her extraordinary life and the humbling effects of nature, and continues with her mission to teach others how to create beauty in their lives everyday.  As Oprah Winfrey said, “Whenever I’m having a stressful day, I just want to open up Carolyne Roehm’s books, look at beautiful things, and dream.” Click HERE to order.
