In the heart of a small wild valley in the Ardèche, along the river Roubreau, hidden by lush vegetation of holm oak and strawberry trees, there lies hidden a wonderful rose garden. We began creating it in 1984, laying out borders and building pergolas and it now boasts 600 different species and varieties of rose.

They thrive in our poor stony soil without fertilisers or synthetic pesticides. In our rose garden we carefully study each variety before multiplying it so that we know exactly what we are selling.

In order to preserve the peace and quiet of the site, we open the rose garden to the public only one month a year when the blooms are at their best. During this period we sometimes organise cultural events around themes that fit perfectly with the setting at of Berty.

We also spend time writing and studying.
