Sorry I thought it was easy

I am a great fan of hers & always seek out any of her gardens in the UK. The National Trust & RHS give access to quite a few & they are really lovely

Here's a bit about her, she worked with Lutyens to form an art movement as well

Believe it or not, but early on I was thinking 'Capability Brown'

[face=Comic Sans MS]OK, let's see how you get on with this..........[/face]

I was born in England in the latter half of the C19th.
I had taught myself to read by the age of five.
I trained as a singer and pianist but because I was so shy I made my career in a different but still creative and artistic way.
My American father died when I was 11 and, becoming restless, my mother began to travel, often taking me with her which gave me my lifelong love of travel and quite a bit of inspiration for my creations.

[face=Comic Sans MS]Well I did try but obviously made it a bit too easy. I'd even got further clues all planned.

Ok, lets see how you get on with this one.

I was born in 1903 and graduated from Sheffield University with a BA in economics.
I travelled a lot with Jason.
