- Julianne Moore is an Oscar winner and a savvy horticulturalist. Michelle leads us on a tour of her West Village townhouse garden. Learn how her backyard takes advantage of city shade and dampness in Design Sleuth: Julianne Moore’s Staghorn Ferns. (And see her kitchen–one of our all-time favorites–in the Remodelista book and 5 Design Tips from Julianne Moore.)
- For the sweetest smelling roses, Michelle turned to the florists at Odorantes in Paris, where blossoms are arranged by scent. Silvery pink and exceptionally fragrant Madame Pierre Ogier is shown here. See the full lineup in 10 Easy Pieces: A Parisian Florist’s Favorite Fragrant Roses.
