50: Claire Austin
This week Bunny is in the garden with nursery women Claire Austin.
Claire is the daughter of rose breeder David Austin (Senior) and worked with him following leaving Art College. Claire admits being more influenced by her mother, who also went to art college and was the gardener in their family. Although when Pat died, her father, David took it over and radically altered it.
Claire set up her own nursery growing perennials, irises and peonies and admits to really not liking roses as garden plants.
She has written several books and is now on the council of the Royal Horticultural Society.
