Les fleurs de Paris



You may wonder about all of the shrubs and blooming plants in Paris.  
The parks and public gardens are filled to the brim, 
but one would think that there are not many private gardens 
in central Paris.


All you have to do is to look to the balconies 
and take a peek inside the almost-closed door courtyards.  


Now what would you put on your Paris balcony?

Can't beat the red geraniums Genie.

As a child, I grew fond of my mother's geraniums. Seeing Paris' geraniums intensified that feeling. This year I managed to grow my own geraniums from last year's seeds. La vie est belle.

Almost-closed-doors into secret, flower-filled courtyards are so enticing! I agree with Joe - it's hard to beat red geraniums (or pelargoniums as they'd like us to call them!).

What a grand and colorful display!

Quite lovely! I know from experience that I'd just end up killing anything plant related that wasn't a cactus.

Red geraniums and I rather like those purple ones, too! Gorgeous photo!

I would have to go for the Geraniums too.

What is it about red geraniums? That's my answer too. :~}
