By the way, I wonder what plants grew on those stony cliffs before all those New World plants were imported -- the agaves, yuccas, and cacti? Some type of local scrub, I imagine.Pam/Digginghttp://www.penick.net/diggingnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3636445408720805216.post-83575662063509429922015-08-17T13:55:07.098-07:002015-08-17T13:55:07.098-07:00If only you knew how many steps I walked on this t...If only you knew how many steps I walked on this trip.

I did know about this one before I went but many times I find a surprise garden by asking where we are staying.

The spiky forms really add to the drama the sea, tile roofs and hills already provide. <br /><br />I still have tickets, but not from travel - from all the rock concerts I attended growing up in Denver!David C.https://www.blogger.com/profile/16897398037657414471noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3636445408720805216.post-38167210975367579032015-08-15T07:17:27.485-07:002015-08-15T07:17:27.485-07:00We were in that area for a week in March and did g...We were in that area for a week in March and did gardens in Cap Ferrat, Monaco, and Menton but we never made it up to Eze.

Gorgeous whether expected or not. Thanks for hauling us up that hill with you/D.
