Arboretum Vilmorin, Botanical garden in Verrières-le-Buisson, France.

The Arboretum Vilmorin extends over four hectares, containing 2,280 identified plant species including major collections of Acer, Berberis, and Deutzia varieties.

Originally a hunting lodge of Louis XIV, Philippe-André de Vilmorin acquired the property in 1815 and transformed it into an extensive collection of trees and shrubs.

The garden represents seven generations of the Vilmorin family's dedication to botanical research, featuring specimens from the Far East, America, and North Africa.

Visitors need to make written appointments to access the private arboretum, located at 2 rue d'Estienne d'Orves, with guided tours lasting 90 minutes.

The arboretum houses rare plant specimens such as Carya buckleyi, Cedrus libani, and Chionanthus retusus, maintained under guidance from a scientific committee.
