Wisteria! When the wisteria is in bloom, then you know it's springtime in Menton.
Here you see the glorious wisteria covering the pergola of the
Clos du Peyronnet, one of Menton's famous gardens. You can visit but as it's a private garden, you need to make an appointment. Click on the link above to read more and click
HERE to read an interview with the owner William Waterfield. This romantic garden - I adore it - has been in the same family for three generations.
Thanks to Virginia who reminded me it is 'wisteria time' with her lovely photographs from
Birmingham, Alabama Daily Photo.
Views of the Nature are really Great.
ReplyDeleteMy hands seem to reach there.

Wisteria flows like silk over the edge and cascades down on the steps in showers of purple. The smells are intoxicating.
ReplyDeleteOh yes, this is glorious!
ReplyDeleteBeautiful shots of beautiful Wisteria!!!
ReplyDeleteBeautiful. I love the color of wisteria.
ReplyDeleteMaybe some of the nicest flowers you can see! Of course, the general environment makes it even more attractive!
ReplyDeleteWisteria and daffodils are what tell me spring has actually arrived. Beautiful photos.
ReplyDeleteJilly,
ReplyDeleteMerci, but ours can't "hold a candle" to yours.

Oh Jilly,
ReplyDeleteHow gorgeous. I think Menton has surpassed Birmingham's wisteria show this spring. Just beautiful.
