Bon Jour from Paris

Oviedo, FL(Zone 9b)

My daughter returned from Paris for her spring break on Saturday with 582 pictures on the camera card. Unfortunately, the camera did not make it back in one piece as she dropped it on the marble floor of the Paris Opera and it fails to close up now. On the good side, she got many pictures and her girlfriend has the same card in her camera so they finished taking pics with her camera, hence the 582 pictures. Here are a few of the Jardins and plantings they came across.

The French equivalent of daffodil days for cancer research. I have the tote bag! a portion of the price of the bag or the potted daffs goes to the fund.

Very pretty, love the cow and the daffs. Looks like spring is popping out all over Paris too. Nice colorful hydrangeas. Thanks for showing us these.

We just had our Saugus Garden Club flower show today and we had a design category called "Art in Bloom" where you had to take a picture of a garden and do an arrangement suggested by it. Here's the picture my daughter used as her inspiration. It is from the Jardin du Luxembourg. The statue is called Le Faune Dansant, or the Dancing Faun. She used yellow tulips and chrysanthemums and white ranunculus for the bouquet. She won second prize.
