In contrast to Château de Vandrimare which had been in the same family since 1492 (!) and which I just wrote about, Jardin de Valérianes is a smaller creation by its current owners. The garden was in two parts on each side of the road with a lot of interesting perennials, some roses and a lot of cool (as in modern hybrids) shrubs and smaller trees.Calycanthus floridus, might have been a particular hybrid. Paeonia delavayi var. lutea An azalea with Hakonechloa macra ‘Aureola’ Cercidipyllum japonicum ‘Rotfuchs’ A double Rubus, and at the moment I can’t remeber what the hybrid is called.. Trillium, might be T.flexipes
