The palm trees protecting us

Symbols of holidays and fine sandy beaches, these trees are used for a whole range of activities, and in particular for construction – offering undeniable protection against weather-related hazards.

In the jungle of our greenhouses, come and discover the importance of palm trees in constructing huts and shelters in tropical forests and understand the consequences for the conservation of these species in the natural environment.

Tuesdays, during your lunch break, why not discover the full extent of our collections and research projects in the company of experts (botanist, curator, horticulturist or researcher).
Check out our full range of workshops and visits.

Part of the “Botanica 2023” event and its theme: “Plants for our future – plants protect us”. From 10 June to 9 July 2023.
