The villa's gardens are clearly David's pride and joy, something that he has spent years creating and which will probably be a work in progress for years to come! The gardens are a wonderful combination of thoughtfully planned beds and areas of wildflowers making surprising appearances. Chloe LOVES to play in the garden, especially playing hide-n-seek. There are so, so many places to hide. Since Chloe really does not feel like going places all that often (she appears to be in a major homebody mode), we're so thankful for the vast gardens to explore. It has rained a LOT, so everything is incredibly green and verdant.
The other day, David took Chloe on a tour of the garden. She is in a constant state of wanting to pick flowers, so to her delight, David offered her some select flowers for the taking. She requested pink ones.
Thanks to the azaleas, dogwood, and a bevy of other pink plant, the pink request was easy.
They just happened to match her dress.
Thank you for the glorious flowers, David!
He even helped Chloe make her first flower arrangement, using a lovely little crystal frog-vase.
She said the purple one is for momma. Thanks Chloe!
Of particular pride is this wee pyreneean orchid, which apparently is quite rare. This one manages to come back every year. Smart orchid, what a lovely home!
