  • Join us in Tangier for the second part of our behind the scenes visit with designer Veere Grenney at Gazebo, his exquisite Moroccan home. In this episode, tag along with Veere in his expansive gardens where he has created an extraordinary world of beauty and exploration. See how Veere created a spectacular terraced garden on his steep cliffside property on the Old Mountain with views of Spain and Gibraltar. Hear how Tangier’s amazing climate has allowed Veere to plant a wide range of plants, both potted and planted, that enhance the garden with staggered blooms year round. Watch as the designer explains his process of garden design utilizing frames of plant architecture that contain the wild growth within. Just as Veere has embraced eclectic combinations in the house’s interior, so has he done in the garden, incorporating custom structures and tilework for a result that is both glamorous and artisanal. The extensive series of paths and outdoor rooms are the source of endless, varied views with many thoughtful resting spots for relaxation and repose. And learn what Veere is currently working on to create a fully experiential outdoor universe. For more on Gazebo and Veere’s two other homes, be sure to put his new book, Seeking Beauty, on your list - link below.

    His boundless energy, vision, and enthusiasm are incredible. I don't know how old he is, but I'd say that men half his age would be put to shame. I'm 68 and can barely get motivated to tend to my small yard in the summer. The gardens are amazing. Maybe it's that walk around the property every day that keeps his spirit up. Regards from Indiana!

    As a very passionate garden designer myself, I truly loved his enthusiasm and the hands-on approach he enjoys. Here in metro Atlanta, we get plenty of rain and so I am grateful I also do not require an irrigation system. In between rains, I supplement with hand watering and thoroughly like the process of the up-close and personal relationship I have with the plants of my garden as I water with a hose. It’s great to see that with Mr. Grennery as well.

    Magical, pup knows the way to continue the tour. Never touch near your eyes after touching an Angel Trumpet flower, it will turn the white of your eye red. I had a beautiful white to pink variety, but after seeing the eye of a child on the news, looked horrible but luckily no lasting damage to the child's eye, still it was the end for my Angel Trumpet, same with Oleander, out it goes, attractive nuisance.

    I feel I may need to take some medication right now having watched that! I feel almost lightheaded as that garden is spectacular and unbelievable at the same time. I’m lucky enough to live in The Cotswolds and have seen many a beautiful English garden but the sheer exotic nature of the plants and the view of the sea is to die for 😀🇬🇧💚🧡.
