Claude Monet’s Garden is located about 1.5 hours outside of Paris.  If you are spending some time in Paris or the north of France, this striking garden is something to put on your travel itinerary.  I had spent an afternoon in Giverny visiting the grounds and taking pictures as quickly as my camera would allow.  It is a gorgeous space and if you are looking to bring back some concepts for your own garden (or purchase some seeds to plant) Monet has you covered.
