le Jardin médiévale de Bois Richeux
A fantastic Chateau garden in the Loire valley. The caretakers keep the garden in the style of a medieval garden, with woven raised planters made of sticks and wood.
Clematis montana in late afternoon sun. This plant was a monster when we moved here over 20 years ago and we have to chop it back occasionally. It grows over a frame with a bench inside nick named the Shady Bower and I love sitting in the late sunshine, framed by its blossom.
I make a diagram of the garden because sometimes I forget what I plant where.
Babylon Chandelier is an “ode to nature.” A transparent bubble houses living plants, creating a suspended garden lamp. Design by Alexis Tricoire.

TBQH, I doubt Madge is the kind of lady who would tend her own garden or care for her own chickens. I mean, she hates hydrangeas. What kind of monster hates hydrangeas?
