In 1932, she became the first woman to graduate with a degree in Landscape Architecture from (present-day) North Carolina State University. She is best known for her columns and books on Southern gardening. Lawrence wrote for House & Garden, The American Home, and Southern Home and Garden, and more than 700 columns for The Charlotte Observer.
