The Sunday Stills challenge this week was ‘Flower Gardens’. This sequence of photos has been taken as we’ve navigated the River Saone at Chalon-sur-Saone, in three different years. This kind of regimented planting isn’t everyone’s idea of a pretty flower garden but you have to admire the skill, patience and precision involved. Click on the link for other collections.

Sandra, Great photos. They remind me of the floats where everything is made of flowers. This is the first I’ve ever seen a whole garden planted that way. 🙂 —Susan

When I think of how my garden looks, despite all my careful size/shape/colour co-ordination planting, I stand back in amazement at this sight every year.

Isn’t it just? I don’t think I’d have the patience.

I prefer the cliche “English garden” but I can respect the work that goes into something like this.

There’s what I’d call an ‘English garden’ close our moorings at Pont de Vaux, all cosmos/cornflowers/poppies. It’s so beautifully undefined, fluffy, nebulous. I’ve kept saying I’ll go back when I’ve got my camera with me but you know how it goes… 😦

Exactly what I’m talking about, Sandra. One of the big reasons I love the iPhone is that my camera is always with me! Takes me longer to get places, but…

It must be done by someone with OCD. Nice photos. Lucy

🙂 You might be right. It wouldn’t do for me, that’s for sure. I just chuck ’em in and watch them grow. Or not.
