All gardens are beautiful, but it is only the most special ones that stick in our minds for years and are not eroded by the sands of time. Looking back at Jane Fonda's home in Paris is a rare glimpse into an outdoor space with this elusive staying power.
An archival image of the actor's French countryside garden from 1970 revels in planting unbound by convention. It features a stone walkway overgrown with grass, and stone walls overgrown with ivy, grounded by swaying silver birch trees. Though the look is wild, it feels anything but messy. Instead, it's a beautiful celebration of the natural world. We spoke with Homes & Gardens resident master gardener, Rachel Bull, to understand why Jane's planting works so well.
