The Jardin des Plantes is the main botanical garden in France. The garden was originally planted by Guy de La Brosse, Louis XIII''s physician, in 1626 as a medicinal herb garden. It was originally known as the Jardin du Roi. In 1640 it opened to the public.
The Jardin des Plantes maintains a botanical school, which trains botanists, constructs demonstration gardens, and exchanges seeds to maintain biotic diversity.
A large Art Deco wintergarden, and Mexican and Australian hothouses display regional plants, not native to France.
