    GARDEN TOURS Our Garden Tours are designed by an American garden designer who has been practicing in Italy for almost 15 years. Since these itineraries can be organized either for independent travelers or for groups , and they can also be customized to best meet the client's requirements , prices are on request . Tuscany Garden Tour Day 1 Florence Arrival in Florence airport and private transfer to the 4 star hotel in the historic centre of Florence. Dinner in a renowned restaurant in the historic centre. Day 2 Gardens in Florence In the morning meeting with the guide at the hotel and transfer by bus to our first Garden Villa Medici di Castello .The Castello garden commissioned by Cosimo I de' Medici in 1535, is one of the most magnificent and symbolic of the Medici Villas The garden, with its grottoes, sculptures and water features is meant to be an homage to the good and fair governing of the Medici from the Arno to the Apennines. The many statues, commissioned from famous artists of the time and the numerous citrus trees in pots adorn this garden beautifully. Then we will visit Villa Medici di Petraia. The gardens of Villa Petraia have changed quite significantly since they were commissioned by Ferdinando de' Medici in 1568. The original terraces have remained but many of the beds have been redesigned through the ages creating a more gentle and colorful style. Behind the villa we find the park which is a perfect example of Mittle European landscape design. Time at leisure for lunch, in the afternoon we will visit Giardino di Boboli If one had time to see only one garden in Florence, this should be it.

  • French & Italian Gardens
    Discover glorious spring peonies French & Italian Gardens PARC MONCEAu – PARIS A pyramid is one of the many architectural set pieces and fragments that lie strewn around the Parc Monceau in Paris. They were designed to bring together the landscape and transform it into an illusory landscape by designer Louis Carmontelle who was a dramatist, illustrator and garden designer. Tombs, broken columns, an obelisk, an antique colonnade and ancient arches were all erected in 1769 for Duc de’Orleans. PARC DE BAGAtelle – PARIS The Parc de Bagatelle is a full scale picturesque landscape complete with lakes, waterfalls, Palladian or Chinese bridges and countless follies. It’s one of Paris’ best loved parks, though it’s most famous for its rose garden, created in 1905 by JCN Forestier. The very first incarnation of Bagatelle in 1777 was the result of a famous bet between Marie-Antoinette and her brother-in-law, the comte d’Artois, whom she challenged to create a garden in just two months. The Count employed 900 workmen day and night to win the wager. The architect Francois-Joseph Belanger rose to the challenge, but once the bet was won, Thomas Blaikie, a young Scotsman, was brought on board to deliver a large English-style landscape. A very successful designer, Blaikie worked in France for most of his life and collaborated on large projects such as the Parc Monceau. JARDIN DU LUXEMBOURG – PARIS Please note this garden is not included in sightseeing but can be visited in free time. The garden was made for the Italian Queen Marie (de Medici), widow of Henry IV of France and regent for her son Louis XIII.

    SEEK GLOBAL INSPIRATION; GARDEN LOCALLY WINTER SYMPOSIUM 52nd CVNLA SHORT COURSE AND PESTICIDE RECERTIFICATION FEBRUARY 10, 11, 12, 2021 WEDNESDAY, FEBRUARY 10 8:30 AM ZOOM WEBINAR OPENS 9 AM WELCOME, INTRODUCTIONS 9:05 AM READING DYNAMIC LANDSCAPES Rick Darke, Rick Darke LLC, Landscape Ethics, Photography, and Contextual Design Local and global trends in ecological stewardship are inspiring designs that embrace dynamic plant and animal communities. Because such landscapes are constantly in flux, their creation and care require enhanced skill in observation, analysis and strategy. This presentation illustrates how to enhance your ability to read into pre-existing and ongoing dynamics in a wide range of landscapes including residential gardens, parks, preserves and highly disturbed urban sites. The focus will be on the regenerative qualities of dynamic relationships and the resiliency that results from celebrating the inevitability of change. 10:05 AM BREAK 10:10 AM THE EVOLUTION OF A NEW RESILIENCE DESIGNER Larry Weaner, Weaner Landscape Design For more than 30 years, Larry Weaner has been a leader in creating resilient landscapes incorporating native plants. He chronicles his own journey and revelations about designing with native plants and his evolving understanding about how to work with the natural forces of the plant world to create native-friendly, resilient and beautiful landscapes. 11:10 AM BREAK 11:20 AM ADVENTURES IN EDEN: TALES OF GARDEN MAKING IN EUROPE TODAY Carolyn Mullet, author and garden designer We live in a time of great energy in garden making—private spaces that express ideas about beauty, place, nature, wildness, and sometimes fantasy. In this talk, Carolyn Mullet draws on her recent book Adventures in Eden, exploring through images the stories behind personal havens scattered across Europe that she chose not for their pedigree but for their owner’s passion and creativity.

  • Groundcovers for the Garden Designer
    Groundcovers for the Garden Designer Gary L. Koll er An eclectic selection of unusual plants for innovative gardeners. With one foot firmly planted in the living col- lections of the Arnold Arboretum and the other in the Landscape Architecture Depart- ment of the Harvard Graduate School of Design, I look at plants for novel uses that may not be fully appreciated by the garden- ing public. I have long believed that the cohe- siveness of a well-crafted garden relies heavily on the successful application of groundcovers. These plants can be used as a "substrate" through which other plants emerge, and which knits the planting into a composition that is visually and spatially pleasing. Given time and the appropriate conditions for growth, groundcovers potentially can reduce the maintenance requirements of the total landscape. Having the opportunity to visit many plant collections as well as developed gardens, I have come across a number of plants that appear to have all the qualities of a successful ground- cover, but are seldom cultivated as such. What are those qualities, you might well ask? Most good groundcovers are little more than very successful weeds controlled and put to good use. The plants not only must maintain them- Epimedium pmnatum var. colchicum in bloom. From in are selves the spot where they planted but the Arnold Arboretum Archives. also must be able to spread outward and colonize an ever-expanding area. With many good groundcovers, the primary concern is not of most volunteer weeds, and tough enough to encourage their growth, but rather to con- to survive neglect, poor soils, and extremes of tain them by installing restraining devices at drought and cold.
