Gardening for women

by Viscountess Frances Garnet Wolseley

My Dear Mrs. Low,—

I have for a long time felt that there is an opportunity for useful work by women in landscape gardening. There is, at the present time, no place except the Lowthorpe School, where women can secure an adequate training in landscape gardening. I believe that your institution is needed, and will be appreciated.

I may say from my impressions upon visiting your school that you have chosen an exceedingly favourable location, and that you have made very fine progress in the organisation of your work.

I want to do what I can to assist your school, for I believe in it. If I can be of any service in this or any other way, I hope that you will feel free to call upon me.

Sincerely yours,

H. S. Graves (Director).
