Very Creative photo! I like the focus on the herbs yet the perspective of the trees brings your eye back to the herbs. Great job! I like the idea of the location of the herb garden.. very creative as well!
I would love a canal trip, to be able to hop off/on in the little villes, riding a bike to reconnect with the boat. Lovely perspective in your photo, too!
Lovely idea. Do people live in these boats? I watched a programme that showed people living on houseboats floating down french rivers. Now that would be living!
Unknown mami Just imagine yourself sitting in a comfy chair with a glass of cold rosé and that view. :)
Meghan I am a true lover of container gardening!
Murissa Yes, there are many who live barges like this. This péniche is a hotel barge, the Athos, which is owned by some friends of ours. We had dinner on board last month before the season began. http://www.athosdumidi.com/
Keetha I do well with herbs...except for basil. Can never seem to keep it alive!

Lovely photo and concept. If I get my blog moving again -- very difficult these days -- I might have to get into some of these weekly events.
Thinking of doing a trip down the Canal next fall and your photo makes me want to do the trip even more!
I love that concept of a floating garden. You caught a nice view of it.

I love those trees that line the canal, though they are the cause of very annoying hay fever/ allergies every late spring!
It would be lovely to float down the canal with garden on board! Great shot!
Diane

I'd love to float on the barge, but I'm pretty sure my herbs would die in the pot!

Many of the barge owners have gardens or at least flower pots on their decks. They are truly floating homes!
