Le Jardin des Plantes
I would imagine that this garden is still a delight, even in September.

About Me
- Virginia
- Birmingham, AL, United States
- I am a former elementary school teacher, a full-time photographer, lover of all things French ( whose French is slowly improving), obsessive Paris traveler, enthusiastic church and community volunteer, and grandmother to 5 delightful grandchildren.
Paris je t'aime
I fell in love with Paris in March 2007. It was as the French say, le coup de foudre : love at first sight. As a result of that trip, my photography took another direction. Since that time I have pursued a career of sorts in photography and dreamed of returning to the City of Light. November 2008 found me strolling the streets of Paris once again. My first visit I was so overwhelmed with the incredible beauty of the city, I photographed it as a "tourist". In 2008 I returned and I looked at the city with more of a photographer's eye. I wanted to capture the unique, the small details, and oh yes - the people! This blog was started as a photo diary of that trip, but I have been most fortunate to return to the city j'adore 15 times since. Each time I leave, I wipe a tear and start planning my list for the next trip. Paris may well be a moveable feast, but I think it's best savored in person! Someone told me that once you have been to Paris, you will leave a piece of your heart. I left mine right there, but I brought home some wonderful memories. It is my pleasure to share them with you.

J'aime! Lovely shot of Le Jardin des Plantes Virginia. Veronique (French Girl in Seattle)
This little garden has been on my to do list for a while and it still is ----for next time x
Hi Virginia,
What a delightful garden shed, I would be so happy, gardening in this place.
happy week
Hugs
Carolyn
Some people know how to rotate plants so that all year there is some sort of blooms, I bet this is one of those gardens Virginia, it looks so well organized and that sunshine yellow shed is fabulous!
AND that garden shed is not just any shed! I would make that into a tea house or a writing retreat!! Anita
J'aime beaucoup Virginie, moment paisible qui semble loin de la capitale, alors qu'à quelques pas... !
Très belle nouvelle bannière.

for my list : to discover and visit next time
Love the little garden shed. Looks like a perfect pied a' terre to me!
OH! heck I have a rubber maid. yuck, yvonne
This little shed is perfectly French with the mottled shades of yellow. I love the perspective of this shot taken through the iron fence.
That was a lovely day...I remember that you and Genie went on to capture the carrousel there.
The garden's kind of messy,, but I like the shed.
Tres jolie!
from friends and family, it's raining over Paris since days..
How cute! I've been to this park before but I don't remember seeing this. It's charming!
Lovely, V! You'd think you were in the country, wouldn't you? Well, except for that fence. :~}
Very nice, Virginia. This is a pretty substantial garden shed. Matched by the pretty substantial cast iron fence.
The Jardin des Plantes is one of my favorite places in Paris! Love this view...
Un endroit certainement magique toute l'année.
Gros bisous
