On Friday, May 13, 2011 The Friends of Robinson Gardens will welcome the public to their twenty-third annual  2011 "...into the garden" Tour. This year's theme is "Under The Tuscan Sun." As always there will be five extraordinary private gardens  that all exemplify excellence in landscape architecture. After viewing these private gardens, guests will arrive at the historic Virginia Robinson Estate and Gardens in Beverly Hills for what many consider the garden party of the year. There is truly nothing like this event in Los Angeles.  

The Robinson house is decorated for the party by prominent Los Angeles florists and designers. Each room is transformed into a world of color, style, and a bit of whimsy through floral arrangements and decor. Last year Los Angeles florist Marc Byrd decorated the dining room with Geary’s of Beverly Hills.

After touring the house, guests are then invited to enjoy a sumptuous lunch and high tea on the Great Lawn while watching a fashion show. There is a boutique on the Tennis Court featuring jewelry, clothing, hats, tableware, and plants. Guests also enjoy floral workshops, a silent auction/opportunity drawing, a botanical art exhibition in the Italianate Pool Pavilion, and book signings by Los Angeles authors. This year Interior Decorator and owner of Hollyhock store Suzanne Rheinstein will be signing her new book  "At Home."

It is a day of elegance and beauty, filled with magnificent gardens, creative and interesting design, delicious food, and high spirits. This is the day that the Friends of Robinson Gardens have been preparing for all year and the only day that they open the doors of the Virginia Robinson Estate and invite their guests to enjoy a garden party in the style that Virginia Robinson herself gave one hundred years ago.
