What a charming house, fairy tale-esque. Nasturtiums seem a simple flower for so much elegance, but the colors go nicely with the building.
ReplyDeleteLovely photos.

ReplyDeleteI love beds of nasturtiums! Not only is the flower gorgeous, but the leaf shape is particularly nice.

I love the nasturtiums. Every year I have plenty of them in my garden. They are perfect to put i salads too:)

ReplyDeleteThanks for linking up to Dreaming of France. I just read about this village in the book Paris.
ReplyDeleteNasturtiums are one of my favorites. And yes, I know -- I've been here before -- and now I have time to dig deeper. Just started following so I don't miss anything! Thanks again for stopping by!
ReplyDeleteI've been to Versailles several times, but never made it to this little corner yet- there's always more to see!

ReplyDelete«Louis» enjoyed the Monet-like image of the nasturtiums so much he had to stop and look again.
