Bonjour,

parterre à l'anglaise


Explanation:
paysager, ou naturel

j'ai l'impression que l'on a voulu dire landscaped

landscaped est moins fréquent que landscape associé à bed mais plus fréquent lorsqu'associé à garden... quoi qu'il en soit, je ne crois pas que l'orthographe de ce mot soit le sujet de la question, mais plutôt sa signification...

neutral  Yan Walther (X): pourquoi? "landscape bed" semble bcp plus courant que "landscaped bed", sur google, du moins.
