Les Floralies - Rue Cler

Les Floralies

Rue Cler

On this pedestrian street, 

the local residents have a wide selection 

of fresh produce, flowers, linens, chocolates, and a daily market.

The terrace cafes are a great place to watch pedestrians 

and the street's activities.

Trois statues parmi les fleurs

Three statues among the flowers

Without regard to the season or the weather,

one can always find fresh flowers, herbs, and plants in Paris.

Are you ready for spring?

Frédéric Garrigues - artisan fleuriste

The objects in this Marais window caught my eye, 

but when I looked on the website at his 

creative use of flowers and "objets éphémères" 

I wished that I had walked inside.

Vertige - Agathe Braconnier

Vertige

Just a stone's throw from Église Saint-Paul-Saint-Louis in the Marais 

is this sidewalk arrangement of plants and flowers.  

The florist designer of this shop specializes in form and design 

as simple arrangements allow the flowers to tell the story.

Magic Flowers

Magic Flowers!

I am often surprised to see English names on Paris businesses, 

particularly when it would be more enticing written in French.  

Nevertheless, this gentleman is poised to make a purchase of flowers, 

perhaps with plans for a bit of magic

Des fleurs du printemps?

The bright selection of flowers in this upscale fleuriste (Marie pour 360 Degrés) could not even be contained in the large windows of the shop.  The colors spilled out across the street onto the columns of the Louvre. 

Although spring is still almost three weeks away, these blooms give us a taste of warmer days filled with sunshine.

bon weekend

Comme ça - le fleuriste

There may be as many florists in Paris as pâtisseries and boulangeries!

Quelques Fleurs de Paris

I do not know what caught my attention first, the orange calla lillies or the stunning paving tiles arranged in cascading semi-circles

Bois Violette -- Reflection

I am a color girl -- rouge, jaune, orange, vert, rose foncé, turquoise, violet

So, when I saw this façade of violet with vivid flowers, it called to me. The name of this belle boutique de fleurs has a name reminiscent of a famous perfume fragrance: Serge Lutens' Bois de Violette.


We'll visit great perfume houses of Paris another day.
