Gardening techniques

A horticultural tool of great ingenuity

The adapted “Château de Versailles » planters are horticultural tools of great ingenuity. The Château de Versailles’ gardeners great expertise allowed to introduce technical improvements to the products in order to provide the best care for all species of trees and shurbs.

The planter is the only one that does not have either a solid bottom or an internal bin. The recovery of plants is thus favored by better drainage and good aeration of the soil mixture.

It is also the only planter to feature four removable side panels. These openings give direct access to the root ball for easy maintenance and to provide the best care.

These removable panels are easily repainted and maintained, without removing the plants. Simply remove the panels in opposing pairs. An operation to be planned when wintering them.
