The French art of living is known throughout the world. In addition to our gastronomy, the art of gardening is also famous all over the world. A French garden is by definition: "The French garden, also known as a regular garden or classical garden, is a type of garden with trimmings and amenities, an expression of classicism in the art of gardens, in other words the search for formal perfection, theatrical majesty and a taste for spectacle."
