Jardin botanique du Château de Vauville, Botanical garden and historic monument in La Hague, France
The 4.5-hectare garden features over 1200 plant species from the southern hemisphere, including palm groves from China and royal ferns from Tasmania.
Guillaume Pellerin and Cléophée de Turckheim established the garden layout in 1948, incorporating plants around the 16th-century castle structures.
The garden demonstrates scientific methods of plant acclimatization, combining elements of French garden design with naturalistic landscaping approaches.
Located at 1 route du Thôt in La Hague, the garden opens from April through September, with adult admission at 9.50 euros.
The Gulf Stream creates temperature conditions that enable tropical plants to flourish at this northern latitude of 49 degrees.
