Italian Garden - Villa Reale di Marlia

[vc_row][vc_column][vc_column_text]The original Italian garden of the Bishop’s Villa, from the 16^th century, was made up of various levels and divided into walled quads with avenues and pergolas supported by columns.

Following the transformations over the years, two elegant gardens have been preserved.[/vc_column_text][vc_gallery type=”image_grid” images=”1872,2032″ img_size=”gal-thumb” el_class=”col2″][vc_column_text]

Raised Garden

This raised (or ‘hanging’) garden occupies the terrace and consists of a striking green lawn. In the centre stands a single, ancient Magnolia grandiflora.

Lower Garden

The lower garden is an example of a formal Italian garden of geometric design, protected on two sides by the supporting terrace walls.

The design of this second garden is characterised by strict, well-defined lines: low, square beds of Euonymus pulchellis form rectangles containing potted spherical topiary. Paving featuring orange and blue gravel provides a touch of colour.[/vc_column_text][vc_gallery type=”image_grid” images=”2034,2033″ img_size=”gal-thumb” el_class=”col2″][/vc_column][/vc_row][vc_row][vc_column][vc_empty_space][/vc_column][/vc_row]
