Next stop: New Caledonia! This archipelago in Oceania deserved a dedicated greenhouse. In these lands, which have long been isolated, plants have become extremely specialised: 76% of the species exist nowhere else! This specificity is a source of delight for scientists...and visitors to the Museum. The greenhouse presents this flora in all its diversity, through five environments: the rain forest, the dry forest, the mining maquis, the savannah and the mangrove. This is an opportunity to admire majestic local tree ferns or endemic species that have become rare in the wild.
