Cafe Marliacea French National Waterlily Collection, lined hypnotically with antique terracotta pots where cuttings were once grown before they were sold. Other waterlilies and lotuses grow in the rectangular pools (from the air it looks like a set of watercolours) where frogs hop and plop, amid the dragonflies and butterflies. Twenty kinds of bamboo grow by the pretty pond, with its waterfall and a Japanese bridge - a nod to Monet’s Giverny. The garden’s excellent Café Marliacea serves lunch, and dinner on Sunday evenings in summer, when the nocturnal tropical waterlilies in the greenhouse show their stuff, including the Amazonian Victoria, with its 1.5m diameter pie-pan leaves. If you’re feeling Monet-ish, Latour-Marliac’s excellent website tells how to create your own water feature. Study it before you arrive, because it’s all too easy to be overwhelmed by the magnificent lilies! © Yvette Molina For more Bamboo and Waterlilies... From Le-Temple-sur-Lot it’s just over an hour’s drive to two other Jardins Remarquables in the Dordogne: the exotic bamboo Jardin de Planbuisson in Buisson de Cadouin and the Jardins d’Eau in Carsac-Aillac home to Europe’s only waterlily labyrinth. https://frenchcountryadventures.com/ RAINA STINSON PHOTOGRAPHY International Award Winning & Fine Art Photographer Guided Photography Day Tours and Workshops Customized photo sessions to capture your special moments in Provence rainastinsonphotography.com Website: latour-marliac.com Take a half day tour: with French Country Adventures frenchcountryadventures.com © Les Jardins d'Eau en Périgord, le Labyrinthe aquatique 44 | The Good Life France The Good Life France | 45
