Down to Earth

These gardens are a beautiful example of a seventeenth-century French Chateau's fashionable formality. Now planted with modern flowers and shrubs, making it natural looking while keeping the classic lines. photography by Le Scanff-Mayer, British House & Garden.Sc00370cdd

Makes me wish I had a chateau.

I can smell the lavender here...mmmmm

Loooove it! I'm crazy about formal gardens, and boxwood! I really like that unthamed lavender border contrasting the neatly cut boxwood!

Simply gorgeous!!! I just want to crawl into your photos & spend the afternoon strolling around the gardens!....Looking forward to your next entry!....Heidi :)
