20ᵉ edition of the Chantilly Plant Days: “Bulbomania” invites itself from October 10 to 12, 2025.

An unmissable rendezvous for gardeners and nature lovers alike, the Jardins de Chantilly return for a colorful 20ᵉ edition.

From October 10 to 12, 2025, the park of the Château de Chantilly, just one hour from Paris, will host the latest edition of the Journées des Plantes, this year under the evocative theme of “Bulbomania”. An unmissable event for all those who cultivate a passion for gardening and wish to meet plant professionals from all over Europe.

A weekend dedicated to bulbs and plant diversity

For three days, the estate will welcome nearly 200 nurserymen and exhibitors. Each will be offering rare varieties, growing tips and planting demonstrations based around bulbs: tulips, hyacinths, narcissi, dahlias and even lilies. The “Bulbomania” theme pays tribute to the famous tulipomania of the XVIIᵉ century, when these plants became objects of collection and fascination.

This year’s event, sponsored by Sarah Poniatowski, founder of Maison Sarah Lavoine, will link design and nature, proving that plants can also inspire contemporary creation.

Animations, workshops and botanical prizes

Visitors will be able to attend numerous practical workshops, take part in conferences and discover the naming of an Aster in homage to Franklin Picard. Prizes will be awarded throughout the weekend, including the Grand Prix du Domaine de Chantilly, the Prix de la Botanique and the Coup de Cœur de la marraine.

Youngsters won’t be forgotten, with family activities, nature workshops and meetings with beekeepers. A full weekend of discovery, learning and inspiration in a friendly atmosphere.
