There is also the painters collection of rare stones, a passion which he maintained alongside its first passion for painting.

The painter's garden has proudly earned the prestigious Jardin Remarquable label — a testament to its exceptional design, historical charm and botanical richness. A haven where art and nature harmonize, showcasing the beauty of every season.
The garden has a soul, and the art gallery is where you feel it most. André van Beek's paintings line the walls: the same colours, the same seasons, the same obsessive eye for beauty that shaped every corner of the garden outside.
An April month that has to be seen to be believed.
A garden shaped slowly, deliberately — the way only a painter thinks about a garden.
Seen on national television and in the national press — because some places simply can't be kept quiet.

Each spring, tulips open across the garden in a bright sweep of colour — vivid pink, sunny yellow, and soft white. Carried to the Netherlands in the 1600s, the tulip became so prized that people once traded fortunes for a single bulb. We like to think a little of that long journey still rests in every petal that opens here.
Each summer, hydrangeas fill the garden with great soft clouds of colour — pink fading to lilac, blue deepening with the mood of the soil beneath. First recorded in Japan, they travelled west in the 18th century, carried by botanists who could not quite believe a flower could hold so many blooms in one hand. We like to think that same quiet astonishment finds anyone who rounds the corner and meets them in full summer flower.
Each summer, rudbeckia lights up the borders in a blaze of gold — daisy-like flowers with dark, velvety centres, turning their faces to the sun on tall, easy stems. Native to North America, where they grow wild across the prairies, they were among the first flowers carried east to European gardens. We like to think there is something generous in a flower that keeps blooming so freely, right through to the first frosts.
Each summer, water lilies open across the still surface of the pond — soft cups of white and pink resting among their round green pads, mirrored perfectly in the water below. They are the flower Monet spent the last decades of his life painting, drawn again and again to the way light settles and shifts across their petals. We like to think something of that same calm carries across the water to anyone who stops to watch them open.
Each autumn, the Japanese maple sets the garden alight — its delicate leaves turning from deep green to a blazing display of scarlet, orange and gold that holds until the first frost. Native to Japan, China and Korea, it has been cultivated for centuries as a living work of art, shaped and admired in palace gardens long before it travelled west in the 1800s. We like to think a tree which burns this brightly in its final weeks of the year knows something the rest of the garden does not.
Each summer, dahlias light up the borders in a blaze of pink and white — tightly layered petals that hold their shape from midsummer right through to the first frosts. Native to Mexico, where they once grew wild in the highlands, dahlias were treasured by the Aztecs long before they became a favourite of European gardens. We like to think there's something generous in a flower that keeps blooming so freely, right past the turn of autumn.
The garden can be hired privately — an extraordinary setting for celebrations, creative projects and professional gatherings. Surrounded by colour and water, framed by thirty years of careful planting, it offers a backdrop that simply can't be staged.
Tell us what you have in mind and we'll help shape the day around it.
A feature on the painter's garden in Saint-Paul — an open-air canvas where every season composes its own palette of water, light and colour.
