An interesting garden concept with paths and contemporary art, using native Mediterranean species and little water. Dubbed "dry gardening" it is said to be a new way of "greening" a garden, recognizing the natural innate character of Mediterranean plants. The garden has over 1,500 species, all perennials with low water needs, and most requiring little maintanence.

Follow the sensory pathways among the plants and artworks, amidst beautiful botanicals that are often overlooked but refined in their own way. The open-air art is an added bonus, and there is also an amphitheater for summer concerts or events.

The company grows and sells plants, all without use of insecticides or fertilizers.

It is located in the low hills of the Maremma district of Tuscany, not far from Marsiliana, Capalbio, and Orbetella.
