An impressive way to get to know some local and imported flora is the visit to the "Jardin des parfums et epices"! Located in the forest next to St-Josephe this green private garden is really fantatsic garden to walk through. The guided tour is highly recommended and will give you not only explanatons about the exotic flowers/ palm trees/ spices, but also cooking recipes and other ideas or new information! On the pictures below you may admire:
- the famous "rose du porcelaine";

- fresh green pepers grains
- the nutmeg apple incl the nutmeg
- the black orchid 
- and the porcelaine rose again with an interesting insect on it;
