Designed by landscaper Airton Hecke, the Lapinha surroundings have been transformed into a captivating and exotic botanical garden. This lush environment features Chinese Cunninghamia pines, European oaks, Mediterranean magnolias, Canadian plane trees, pink rodendos, and elegant casuarinas, interspersed with ipe and native palms. The grounds abound with vibrant floral displays, including azaleas, mallows, hydrangeas, bougainvilleas, beds of roses, and compositions of dahlias, gerberas, poppies, zinnias, and daisies reminiscent of the flower fields that inspired Monet in Europe. Summer visitors can witness sunflower fields that evoke the paintings of Van Gogh or the vast flower fields of Russia.
