WELCOME TO MY BLOG.

I've always had an interest in gardens and in the natural world. I soon realized that these were more than just flowers to me, but people, places, pictures, history, thoughts...
Starting from a detail seen during one of my visits, unexpected worlds come out, sometimes turned to the past, others to the future.

Travel in a Garden invites you to discover them.

Mutations, Heidi Bedenknecht-De Felice, Orticolario, Como, Italy.



Fantastic creatures, flowers, leaves and vines, climb the trunk of an old tree and sway in the air. Their bright colours and imaginary shapes are eye-catching. Changing light reveals their mysterious nature: mutations.

Heidi Bedenknecht-De Felice, German-born artist living in Como, created this installation made of fluorescent polycarbonate for Orticolario, the Flower Show held in late September at Villa Erba in Como. She interpreted the theme of this year, the Sixth Sense, inviting the busy visitors to look beyond reality with this representation of how human activities affect the environment and profoundly alter nature.

New species among anemones and camellias.
