Transparency

Respectful of plants and their natural shapes, and based on a careful observation of each one, it allows light and rain to pass through the plant beds, promoting regeneration and the coexistence of a wide variety of plants. It brings lightness, transparency, and resistance to wind and storms while also ensuring a more even distribution of blooms.

For several years, Dominique Cousin has been in charge of pruning at Vasterival, where he makes trees and shrubs « transparent » according to these principles, which he explains during his pruning courses, supported by practical exercises.
