In our garden we have a dining terrace that we use for entertaining or summer lunches. It is there that I like to display some of the succulents we have in the garden. I like to create “tablescapes” to give this area interest and subtle color.

Pots of mixed succulents, ready for table decorations for our summer entertaining. I especially like the subtle colors.

The fresh look of “shocking pink” ivy geraniums in antique garden urns gives a nice entrance into our dining pavilion. Getting ready for summer entertaining. The Sunbrella persimmon chair cushions and stripe awning give a nice contrast to the “green” garden surroundings.

So proud of my son-in-law Philippe LeManach and his story in this month’s Elle Decor. His company Accents of France produces beautiful product.

Just returned from my daughter’s garden and had to share these photos. Accents of France lattice and this beautiful “shocking pink” azalea topiary. Heaven. It’s Spring!
