I think the botanic garden in Paris very much follows the French style, more so than the Montpellier garden does – although, admittedly, I don’t really know what I’m talking about. What I mean with the French style is pictures I’ve seen from French castle gardens, especially the ones at Versailles. The open spaces, meticulously cut bushes and trees, flowerbeds, geometric patterns created by the paths. More elegant than lush. And flowers, so many flowers, with bees and butterflies in abundance.
