Inspirational Gardens

 
  Rhododendrons and azaleasSculptured Formal Gardens
A hillside -  with rhododrendrons and azaleas tumbling down in shades of pink and purple with a touch of ivory as an accent - shows that some of the gardens are inspired by the randomness of nature itself.  Then there is the formal sculpture garden with immaculately designed and trimmed hedges, a fountain and smaller plants, all in a typically French symmetry - quite calm and orderly, yet nonetheless enjoyable.

  La Vallon des poètes










This garden is named  la vallon des poètes (the valley of the poets), perhaps because just looking at it is inspirational!   Can you imagine being there?   Intense colors, complemented by the blue sky reflected in the water and combined with thoughtful design, create an environment that is absolute perfection!
