In a few weeks, the Jardin des Plantes will have completed its moult. If the containment put a brake on the works, they have resumed well and the site has started its third and last phase.
On the program: make this space located in the heart of the city greener.
“The landscaped area lacked consistency, it says in town hall. The central basin leaked and had become over time a source of nuisance. It required daily cleaning. Not being classified, we made the decision to remove it while preserving the lateral pelvis and its waterfall. “
New developments
For this last phase, new developments are emerging. The kindergarten will thus be enlarged. There is a slide slide, a climbing module and tunnels.
A relaxation area will be created with the installation of sun loungers offering a clear view as far as the coast. The Jean Ossola stele will be lowered and moved for better consistency with the premises.
Other planned changes: the creation of a slab equipped with a misting device in the center of the garden, the planting of trees and shrubs, the installation of green areas, as well as the lighting of the monumental subjects.

“The ambition is to create a place of life for the people of Grasse and to produce cultural events in this green theater, such as plays or jazz concerts, specifies the mayor, Jérôme Viaud. On the pergola, the climbing jasmine is invited to thrive for a green cage effect, a sort of protective, shaded and fragrant cocoon which should attract many visitors. Everything is thought to be in the modernity of the 21st century, with the design of the sun loungers and misting wells. The aisles, accessible for people with reduced mobility of course, follow the contours of the terrain without ever losing sight of the great landscape and the sea in the distance. “
The site should be completed in the coming days and will be inaugurated on July 6. In all, three companies (Botanica, SEETP and France construction) intervened as well as the agents of the city’s green spaces service.
The total cost of the works is 295,000 euros. An invoice reduced by the National Fund for Land Use Planning which finances 140,000 euros as part of the Action Coeur de Ville plan.
