Monty Don Explores the Art of French Gardens 🇫🇷 | Monty Don's French Gardens

Описание: 🌷 Season 1, Episode 2
Monty Don travels through France and its beautiful gardens to find the heart of French gardening. He looks at how French history, culture, and a deep appreciation for food has created a unique style of kitchen garden. This journey starts in the silence of a medieval monastery, where nuns grow food for survival and devotion, which sets the foundation for French vegetable growing. Monty then visits the grand, ornamental vegetable displays of the aristocracy, including the stunning Château de Villandry, where he questions if function has been lost to form. The journey takes him to the historic and huge Potager du Roi at Versailles and ends at a Michelin-starred organic restaurant where the garden itself dictates the menu. Through it all, Monty shares practical gardening advice, celebrates the French focus on pruning, and tries to understand why the French treat gardening as a high art.
