Description:
The Black Garden is part of the famous landmark of Paris – Andre Citroën Park, which was opened in 1992. The plants in this garden are selected in such a way that together they create the impression of a thick black color.
The garden covers an area of 2 hectares, it is planted with dark green plants. Interestingly, coniferous plantings are trimmed in such a way that remind tourists of dwarf trees popular in Japan, while growing to unimaginable sizes. In addition, in the garden you can see plants and other flowers - dark red, maroon, dark purple, which all together create a feeling of deep black. So, in the spring under the pine trees you can see how black tulips bloom.
The garden is surrounded by walls, and it has the shape of a labyrinth, while the picturesque steps lead tourists to a small square square in the center of the garden, decorated with black marble.
