THE REMARKABLE TREES OF ORLEANS

The city has put in circulation a leaflet that allows to visit the city and discover it with a different and original vision: map of the brochure in hand, we are part of the meeting of the trees of the city. But not anyone: only those who have a particularity to make us discover, be it their dimensions, the rarity of their species or their particular situation. For example, who has ever noticed the giant tree in front of the Hotel Groslot? Well, you know that it is a two-year-old if it is. On the promenade of Rocheplatte Boulevard, we discover a huge Redwood, beautiful purple, a paulownia worn by time, a majestic sugar maple, very big plane… Not forgetting those of the Jardin des Plantes, such as Araucaria araucanía ("Despair of Monkeys"), Ginkgo biloba ("Tree to ECU 150"), Le tulipifera ("Tree to ECU"), Le tulipifera ("Arbre au"). Virginie box) over 150 years old, Sequoia sempervirens (still green sequoia) over 150 years… A pleasant Way to Walk.
