On our way back from Provence we stopped to look at Chartres cathedral, which is of course magnificent, but which was undergoing alot of renovation so I was delighted to see the beautiful planting to the side of it! In fact, dare I admit it, as a garden designer I was almost more taken with the planting than the cathedral! Sadly my photos don’t really do it justice, but perhaps you can get some idea.
