Guided tour of the City of Mulhouse horticultural production greenhouses

Here, in over 2,600 m² of greenhouses and 3,880 m² of tunnels, more than 90,000 plants come to life each year before being sent to the city's parks, gardens and squares. From the vibrant blooms of spring to the more subdued compositions of autumn, it all begins in these spaces where the passion of gardeners blends with a genuine commitment to quality.

Beyond horticultural production, these greenhouses embody a resolutely forward-looking approach. Cultivation techniques are being adapted to preserve resources and protect the environment. Chemical fertilisers are gradually being replaced by more natural, soil-friendly solutions, peat-free cultivation is being successfully trialled, and hardy local plants are regaining a place of honour in trials conducted for the future.

This tour is a unique opportunity to understand how, in a veritable hive of expertise and innovation, Mulhouse carefully cultivates the plants that colour its urban landscape while meeting the ecological challenges of our time. Each plant and each seedling is the result of meticulous work and a deep commitment to a more beautiful and sustainable natural environment.
