A February 24 book signing at Sutherland and Perennials Studio in San Francisco featured Clinton Smith, editor in chief of Veranda. The author signed copies of his tome The Romance of Flowers for a number of notable attendees, among them Cathy Hodges, Grant Jackson and Linda Marks. As Cayla Atha, media relations manager at Sutherland and Perennials, shares: “We were honored to host Clinton and the Veranda team to celebrate The Romance of Flowers in our newly minted studio space! From the lively crowd to the creative hors d’oeuvres from Taste, the night was splendid.”
