The knowledge of the French language does not help a bit for gardening, unlike cooking, literature or movies, for which there exists a rich cultural tradition.
Gardening is also a great French tradition, with many regional varieties of vegetables and legumes, but most of everything you would want to know about gardening is available in English, especially regarding organic and sustainable gardening, which are very present in Britain and the USA.
Actually, due to the globalization of the internet and the predominance of English, it probably goes the other way round: the knowledge of English is recommended for a French gardener. You can find compilations of thousands of English books and booklets about agriculture on sites such as cd3wd, to help developing countries reach self-sufficiency.
There are also much more social sites, forums and blogs dedicated to gardening in English than in French. Not to worry, there are many in French too, and many French magazines and books, French gardeners don't have to learn English yet.
Most countries prohibit the importation of foreign seeds, so the knowledge of French would not help there either, except maybe if you live in a small country in the European Union where few seed catalogs are available, especially for organic seeds. I have bookmarked almost two dozen French online seed catalogs, so there is a great choice to tap into.

In MY opinion, I find french to be alot less complicated than mandarin Chinese.Because to learn Chinese you have to know the symbols, read them and write them correctly. Mandarin Chinese pronounciation can be quite difficult also. As with french there are no symbol and in my opinion french is easier to pronounce.
Sure! Most kids in other countries learn more than one language, so why not learn french! It might be difficult to find anyone who would speak french with you if you were on a trip and didn't know anyone in Australia...Perhaps researching french clubs in Australia would be helpful to find areas where people will speak french.

American chicks dig the French language and find their speakers hot, and so do many other European countries (prejudices ftw). I don't know how they're viewed by the Oriental cultures though.
In the U.S. it is generally more useful to learn Spanish than France unless you know that you will have more contact with speakers of French.
