520 1 _aGeorge McKay’s Radical Gardening includes a section on ‘Gardens of Liberation,’ in which he describes gardening as “one of the cultural spaces in which it was acceptable or possible for lesbians (or ‘sapphists,’ in the eighteenth century term) and homosexual men to express both solidarity and the self.” Notable examples of ‘queer gardens’ and gardeners he mentions are 18th century artist and gardener Mary Delany (whose intricate botanical papercuts have experienced a 21st century rediscovery), painter and plantsman Cedric Morris and his partner Arthur Lett Haines, filmmaker and gardener Derek Jarman, and more recently artist Paul Harfleet’s The Pansy Project (a blend of conceptual art, guerrilla gardening, and resistance to hatred and violence).
