Het Loo Palace has several long straight fruit walls with espalier fruit trees.A special feature of the collection is that many trained fruit trees are still growing in a well-balanced way despite their old age.The collection of orangery plants is also striking.<\/p>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/section>\n\t\t\t\t
