stupendo grazie
Very resourceful, thanks for sharing.
Nice documentation 👍
Interesting. I live in SW France and have a part of the garden which has a west-north-west exposure, on edge of forest, on a slight slope so gravel use is not possible due to water run-off during rainy times. Soil is clay topped with bark chipped as a result of nearby felled oaks and Arizona Pine.
Thank you for posting this interview, and thanks to Terremoto for getting their philosophies into the works - sense and place.
17.00 molto bello.
This was amazing. Thank you for sharing it with the public. I learned a lot from it.
can you all please shut the fock up?!
Wonderful... Thank you Marijke. Beautifully presented. I feel wonderfully inspired.
This is one of the most beautiful gardens I’ve ever seen. Loved this walkthrough presentation.
Maurizio explained so many of the concepts that have taken me 12 years of gardening in Italy to understand. This is the first MGS video I’ve watched although I have had the pleasure of meeting some of the members when I guided them through the historic gardens of Lazio. Thank you Maurizio and thank you Angela.
I’m writing on behalf of my husband who likes to use me as his secretary. These are his words: thanks for the video! Yes it’s important to primarily use native plants. You are right that we can use any other plants that are drought tolerant provided that they are not invasive. We understand the challenge of the Mediterranean garden. We are here in Palestine trying to build an arboretum, working on it for 8 years and failing. We’d love to learn more or host experts!
This is a great year in review video!
I like the ending saying ciao and everyone sounds like birds. Great presentation, and some beautiful gardens.
Breath of fresh air... well done Marijke
This was so enlightening! Thank you!!
