EdV Garden
A Garden with a view
Spread out on a hill just outside Florence, EdV Garden is an original, colorful and cheerful space where you can relax and enjoy nature with a beautiful view over the city. Born from the inspiration of the owner, Alice Esclapon de Villeneuve, the garden is the happy fruit of her creativity, imagination, and a true passion for flowers and plants.
Its design began about 20 years ago with the birth of Alice’s daughter, the idea is to create a place where you can see her play, grow and become familiar with nature by feeding in her that vital gift, typical of childhood: imagination. This space was to become an “open-air diary” of which each installation would be a chapter, plants and flowers the words. In the garden nothing is left to chance, a careful and loving study of the plants and their botanical characteristics makes each of them almost capable of personifying itself.
EdV Garden slowly and unknowingly becomes a “Garden of Wonders”, which from 2021 opens to the public with the aim of promoting the culture of greenery and creativity, offering visitors a special place to relax and, amidst scents and colours, one installation and another, to bring out something new or dormant about themselves and about life.
