Southern Lady May/June 2023

Bask in the pleasures of sunshine and flowers in our issue filled with lush gardens, fresh décor, and ideas for easy entertaining. Nothing embellishes a Southern table quite like old-fashioned treats served on heirloom dishes, so we present a plethora of recipes for the savvy hostess. Gorgeous roses and more abound in our features on gardens in Virginia and Texas, where enterprising women are at the helm. Step inside a sublime 1960s residence renovated by a couple who first fell in love with the property’s floriferous yard. You will find inspiration aplenty in our dramatic sunroom tabletop and a breezy outdoor setting, along with a tutorial for our fanfold menu as an extra touch. Join us as our collegiate exploration continues with a trip to spirited Auburn, Alabama, and we discover South Carolina’s historic Georgetown, where grand oak-lined streets mingle with a pleasant coastal vibe. Vintage butter plates, pink peonies, and pretty party punches round out the issue, perfect for sharing as you open your home for this beautiful season.
