Gardens in Switzerland

I loved how the garden above blended flamboyant cultivars with vegetables and even compost in the wooden lined raised beds.
The garden below was an abstracted alpine garden with cultivars of alpine plants and even a little constructed grotto with stalactites in the bottom left.

The garden above very well complemented the traditional architecture.
The gardens below in Vals were classic, surrounded by the gard-en fence: the word for garden comes from roots words of guarding and means with a fence. In the image immediately below note the kohlrabi and cabbages. This was the front yard plot.
This garden, also in Vals, relied more on ornamentals.
