When we think of Beatrix Potter, we imagine blue-jacketed bunnies and other cute animals. But Potter, an intriguing character in her own right, was also quite interested in plants. Join historian Marta McDowell for an exploration of Potter’s botanical art, the flora and horticulture that appears in her “little books,” and her gardening and conservation efforts in England’s Lake District.
