An exceptional place…
The specificity of this arboretum lies in its formidable collection of maples (about a hundred species), classified as an “approved collection” by the French Conservatory of Specialized Plant Collections. A student and emulator of Gilles Clément, Philippe Wanty, its owner, aided by his wife, has kept the spirit of the concept of Gardens in Motion.
Nested on the banks of the Sedelle River, one walks between the many varieties of rhododendrons, viburnums, dogwoods, hornbeams, to a narrow valley, built of heather moors, lulled by the gentle sound of the river.The Arboretum of the Sedelle, it is 400 species with 1000 colors.
