Rendez-vous at the Gardens 2026: An exceptional tour of a private rose garden in the Yvelines

For Rendez-vous aux Jardins 2026, head to Rosay in the Yvelines, where the Roseraie du Clos Paradénia unveils a private, thriving garden, lush with roses and notable trees.

Each year, the Rendez-vous aux Jardins invites the curious, Sunday strollers and plant lovers to push open the gates of parks and gardens that are sometimes little known, sometimes hard to access. A chance to dive into the richness of our botanical heritage and the know-how of gardeners. In 2026, the event will take place over the the weekend of June 5–7, with a clear promise: to open spaces where nature speaks as much as it can be admired.

In the Yvelines, the Roseraie du Clos Paradénia, in Rosay, is exactly one of those places that begs you to slow down. Behind this name that hints at a secret garden lies a privately owned property cultivated with passion, where roses naturally take center stage. The garden features a rosary of more than 300 species, close to 50 species of notable trees, fruit trees, a vegetable patch, a wide flowering palette, aromatic plants, rare species, and even a saffron bed. In short, botany enthusiasts are very likely to lose track of time here.

Le Clos Paradénia has the charm of very personal gardens: the kind you stroll through as if tracing a story patiently planted. Carefully tended by its owner, the place blends moods and uses. You come for the roses, of course, with their shapes, their scents, and their colors, but you also discover a kitchen garden, a collection garden, or a garden of fragrances and quiet observation.
