The Garden of the Tower and tenacious plants is in Zovencedo, half an hour by car from Vicenza. It is the constantly evolving “creature” of Camilla Zanarotti, agronomist, landscape architect and gardener, who created it by reclaiming some sloping, rocky and shallow ground. It is truly a brave feat of never-ending experimentation supported by true passion and love competence.

Overlooking a wonderful panorama, this garden develops on sloping terraces, starting from the forest behind the house. The thoughtful choice of flowers capable of withstanding the challenging climate and soil never ceases rewarding Camilla with thousands of delicate shades of white, pink, and purple.
There is a lot of shrub and botanical roses, as well as asters, grass, perennial herbaceous plants, bulbous plants, botanical rarities, violets, and hellebores.
The romantic gazebos made of chestnut poles are covered with roses, while the outstanding large vegetable and flower garden is 100% organically cultivated – as well as the adjacent small orchards.
Camilla has recently added two pools dedicated to lotus flowers and other water plants.

The garden is open also for small group visits, by appointment.
