Show Notes

Brazil Roberto Burle Marx arrived in the world in August 1909, born into culturally layered roots in SãoPaulo. His mother hailed from a French descended Brazilian family, his father from a German-Jewish lineage, and when the family moved to Rio de Janeiro in 1913, an early passion took seed. Under the gentle encouragement of his mother and beloved nanny, Roberto learned to sow seeds and tend blooms long before he could ever read a landscape plan. These formative years quietly nurtured a lifelong devotion to plants. Diarmuid Gavin bring us his gardening life story.
