The garden of the forgotten

Studies and research on ancient Norman roses

Guided and commented tour about the re-identification of roses found here and there in the Normandy countryside: evocations of the history of roses in Normandy, men and women breeders and awareness of the botany of roses.
This is the appropriate occasion to address the theme of this year’s five senses. 170 roses (at least) planted either in mixed border or with vegetables, all grown without pesticides for more than 30 years! A succession of themed rooms gives an intimate character to this garden: white garden, walled garden, vegetable garden, etc.
