Au Nom de la Rose

The flower shops "Au nom de la rose" are specialized in everything roses. Not only do they have a spectacular selection of roses, they also offer a product line of other rose products, including jam, lollipops, chocolates with crystalized roses, perfume, candles, room spray, and rose flavored syrup.

Geraniums

The Parisian window boxes are traditionally planted with geraniums. A hotel in Rue Cler sets a good example...

These beautifully greened up windows were right across the street from my hotel some weeks ago.

Flower Market

The Flower Market on Place Louis Lépine on the Île de la Cité exists since 1808 and is the oldest market of its kind in Paris. On Sundays the flowers are replaced with the caged bird market.

Hyacinths

A foretaste of spring...

Flowers

I discovered this sofa at Merci, a concept store on Boulevard Beaumarchais, on a grey day last november. I wouldn´t put it in my apartment, but together with the flowers on the table it definitely lit up my day.
