Le Roi Soleil - tree boxes. Versailles planters.

JARDINS DU ROI SOLEIL produces and markets the Château de Versailles orange-tree box, a patented adaptation of the garden boxes created in 1670 by André Le Nôtre for the growing of orange-trees at the Château de Versailles under the reign of Louis XIV.

The « Château de Versailles » citrus planter is inspired by the model designed by Le Nôtre, and by an adaptation dating from 1820, which can only be found at the Orangery of Versailles. The « Château de Versailles » tree-box owes its reputation to its technical specifications making it an unique horticultural tool, to the rigorous selection of noble materials such as oak and cast-iron that go into its composition, thus producing an entirely French-made art-craftsmanship piece, which can last up to 150 years.
