French Gardens to visit
Though the French as a whole are not yet as passionate about gardening as the English there are, non- the- less, many beautiful and interesting gardens to visit in France.
From the very formal gardens around the large chateaus, for example Les Jardins du Chateau de Hautefort, to much smaller intimate gardens such as Les Jardins de l'Albarede, there is much to see. Much to learn too. For example, Les Jardins de l'Albarede reveal a pivotal use of mulching to keep alive a garden which can cope with the hot French summers with little rain. Useful information to take back to the UK as summers get increasingly hot and rainfall ever lower!
