On Saturday, May 17, 2025, the Friends of Robinson Gardens is pleased to present its 36th annual Garden Tour & Showcase Estate fundraiser. This year’s theme Floral Fantasia celebrates the healing power of nature.
Come and celebrate inspiring beauty at our legendary Garden Tour, and all for a great cause! This premier annual event raises much-needed funds for the preservation and restoration of the beautiful Virgina Robinson Gardens, a landmarked historical estate built in 1911. The Friends are very grateful for the sponsorship of the Tour by Northern Trust, Plantasia, Lillian Vernon, and Sunset Magazine.
The enchanting self-guided tour will feature three magnificent properties rarely open for garden lovers to visit in Beverly Hills, as well as the estate at The Virginia Robinson Gardens. A not-to-be missed highlight of the event is the transformation of select rooms of the main house into visions of dazzling beauty by top florists. A truly glorious sight to behold, the floral designers’ enchanting creations are an inspiring and visual feast for the soul.
This year, the Friends are very proud to honor Jade Mills as our Grand Marshal. In the luxury real estate market, Beverly Hills realtor Jade Mills is renowned among colleagues and clients alike for her integrity, loyalty, and professionalism. In 2019, Jade became the #1 agent worldwide for Coldwell Banker and is the International Ambassador for Coldwell Banker Global Luxury. She has a reputation as one of the most trusted and admired agents in the Los Angeles real estate market.
The Friends are also very honored to present Beverly Hills jeweler, Douglas Kazanjian, as our Garden Champion. Douglas is CEO of Kazanjian Beverly Hills, celebrating its 112th year in business. Kazanjian has a fine gems and jewelry business that includes antique jewelry and custom designs. An accomplished photographer, Doug has also published gorgeous books of gems and jewels artfully displayed among flora in the gardens at Robinson Gardens. He will be signing several editions of his books, Kazanjian Gems in the Garden.
Gourmet delights are another favorite part of this glamorous garden party. A sumptuous luncheon will be served, and you will be entertained by a captivating, informal modeling show, presented by Sheila On Sunset. There will also be a Hat Contest with prizes. The three categories for the prizes will be: Most Glamorous; Best Fascinator; and Best Floral Fantasia. Join in the fun and wear your favorite hat or create your own!
There will be a boutique with exciting vendors showing lovely fashions, bags, hats, jewelry, charms for charm bracelets, French tablecloths, candles, and unique gifts for the home and garden – a great place to buy gifts for your loved ones or yourself.
A silent auction will offer unique experiences and beautiful items to bid on, from restaurant experiences to cooking demonstrations, stays at iconic hotels and more.
Don’t miss this glamorous day of magnificent beauty through garden visits, breathtaking floral creations, an exciting boutique and silent auction, a culinary feast, and more. This glorious experience would make a great Mother’s Day gift as well.
