But Mrs. Mellon, as she was respectfully called by those professional gardeners who worked with her most, wasn't afraid to get her hands dirty in the rich soil of her family's Virginia farm. Beyond this, Bunny Mellon was known nationally and internationally as a style icon of her time, enjoying friendships with Givenchy, the Kennedys, and the like. Her personal passion was for design, and that was exhibited in her fashion and her garden.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eA trusted author, Linda Holden learned that Bunny wanted to write a gardening book but never found the time.
