Sensory experience during a free visit of about 2 hours: the 5 senses of visitors will be activated during a pleasant walk.The view : the garden of about 10000m², will allow you to discover the different sectors with plants with soft to shimmering colors:
• The small park
• The rose garden
• Theme sectors, Planter travel memories: Japan, Morocco, Nepal, China (Tibet, Yunnan) Peru, England, Ireland and more locally: Brittany, Touraine and Anjou
• The Great Park
• Hydrangeas and grasses
• The tour of the house with the first garden, long remained private.
Hearing As soon as you leave the car park, you will hear the cackling of geese and ducks and possibly the crow of the little rooster Lucien, the cooing of doves and pigeons, the jacassement of magpies and the singing of different birds according to the seasons: tits, cuckoos, sparrows, hoopoe, … Croaking frogs and toads … My garden is an LPO refuge.
At the foot of the large hedge, you will hear the rustle of the leaves of the large trees.
You can sit in the kiosk in front of the large basin and listen to the lapping of the waterfall and the «music» of the flute player, not far from the Moroccan stone fountain of Erfoud which flows peacefully.
The sense of smell : Early June will be the best time to enjoy the smell of roses, especially the old ones.
Shrubby sage, germandrées, artemises, lavender, nepetas, monarchs and many others decorate the place.
In the old garden, a small scented corner is offered: honeysuckle, seringat, lily, chocolate universe, roses…
The taste : Being a pleasure garden few plants can be tasted. Many are toxic.
If some can be enjoyed including daylilies, I would rather see them bloom than eat them!
Touch him It is better to touch the plants with the eyes!
In my garden you should not touch, among others, the digital, euphorbia, leaves of the fremontodendron...
