For a while now I have been toying with the idea of doing
a series...of series
Hopefully the beautiful images and design ideas I come across in my daily work will be just the thing to spark a long held design dream of yours.
That being said, I would like to introduce you to my first Series entitled "Up On The Roof"...and what better way than to start with a roof garden I am sure is close to all our hearts.
One of Paris' best held secrets. The luxurious Hermes Roof Garden,
high above 24 Faubourg Saint-Honore

roses, sage, rosemary, hibiscus, balsam, hawthorn, magnolias, lilies were chosen specifically to perfume the air
Pears and apples were chosen as well for their spring bloom
A small grass area was included for laying out and watching the beautiful Paris sky go by

ReplyDeleteAs as I know it is by appointment only
DeleteRoof gardening is an art unto itself. Not only for the plant limitaions due to winds & pollution but also the soil and drainage issues. I am glad you appreciated.
ReplyDeleteUnfortunately it is open by invitation only.
Very nice indeed!
ReplyDeleteIs there a list of the plants available?
