An exclusive tour of Provence, escorted by Ron & Carolann Rule, will focus the best examples of contemporary living in the south of France at the time of year when the air is still warm and redolent with the herbal fragrances released by the Mediterranean sun. Roman Provence was the first province outside of Italy and its heritage has never made the separation between productive and pleasure gardening. Inspired by a love of nature and ecological idealism, the gardens of Provence are the forefront of global garden design, attracting the top international designers.
Nicole de Vesian, Dominique Lafourcade, Marc Nucera, James Basson, Jacqueline Morabito, Francois Catroux, Lawrence Johnson; these are names that may or may not be familiar. Many gardens are private and others public; most are hosted by the resident owner. The gardens planned make a superb agenda for garden lovers and students of design. The tour group is purposely kept to 12-16 guests, ensuring the right amount of personal interaction with Ron and the gardeners we are fortunate to meet.
