A key public space of the major urban plan for La Duchère, this park revitalises a geography that has been mistreated by history while developing “urban nature” that links and bonds the area together. Used as a spoils storage site during the creation of the “Grand Ensemble” major housing complex, this small valley was mistreated over time by water engineering works (pipes) that are purely functional.

Happy Friday! When I was coming in from the garden a couple of nights ago I looked back and saw the sun setting behind the cottage and wanted to capture the evening light in this garden vignette, So, I had to snap a few more quick shots but I am noticing the evenings are getting shorter. Lots of hydrangeas and phlox blooming now. A basket of flowers I planted up in the spring has done reasonably well with not a lot of care.......it is on the north side so it doesn't dry out as quickly. As I was removing some plant tops that were dying back I had a hole to fill so this chair got moved in to add a little color. The arbor to the front door. Golden Glow and phlox leaning over the old picket fence. I took this shot a couple of weeks ago so the clematis is not as prolific right now.This little garden room is tucked in at the south of the Gardener's Cottage. Another nook with a table for tea or lunch. Take a peek into Martha's Garden before you go. As usual, I never seem to get all around the garden ....maybe next time. I hope you have a wonderful weekend! Carolyn
