William Robinson (1838 - 1935) was an Irish gardener and journalist.
Robinson was a champion of the wild garden and led the break away from formal gardening. This led to the English cottage garden style becoming popular.
He is considered the father of modern English gardening.
In 1903 Robinson engaged Henry Moon to illustrate his favourite flowers. Here are some of the lithogrpahs for you to choose from. They are beautifully chromolithographed in vibrant colour on soft white, thick paper. They are genuine antique prints, made in the 1903.
