The Mediterranean garden is
formal and manicured. Stately palms and spiky plants such as yuccas,
cordylines, agaves, aloes and phormiums are used lavishly in the company of
other trees and shrubs normally associated with the drier climate of the
Mediterranean such as olives, Italian cypress and eucalyptus. In spring the garden becomes a riot of colour led by trees
like acacia which lights up the sky with a dazzling display of
yellow mimosa blossom. |
