This second year, 38 317 visitors came to visit us (153 558 pages seen). For this anniversary, we have created a new page dedicated to sports and added a new function in the nomenclature. Therefore, when a camellia is a sport or a seedling of another cultivar, a link allows you to jump to the original camellia. You can see this behaviour, for example on 'Elegans Champagne'. Pages dedicated to the visits of Jardin des Plantes de Nantes, Domaine de Trévarez, Bambouseraie d'Anduze and Parc Floral de Paris have been deeply modified (and are now in english). |
