Le Jardin Remarquable du Château Val Joanis

At the foot of the Luberon, on the site of an ancient Roman villa, lies this estate, most of whose 400 hectares are devoted to the cultivation of vines and olive trees. In 1978, landscape gardener Tobbie Loup de Viane designed the garden near the château on the model of 18th-century gardens. He created 3 terraces sheltered from the mistral. One is devoted to the kitchen garden. It is divided into rectangles where flowers alternate with aromatic and medicinal plants, cabbages, lettuces, tomatoes and other varieties. The second is devoted to roses and irises. The third is dedicated to ornamental trees. A walkway under an arbour planted with rambler roses allows you to move from one to the other without losing the harmony that reigns in this garden.
