The Marche aux Fleurs is a market for the true gardener.  It is full of potted flowers to hang on your French balcony. 

It is located in the 4th Arrondissemont and is a cinch to get to.  Take the #4 metro to Cite' and you will spill out onto a beautiful garden in the heart of the city.  Stall after stall of potted plants stand at attention, plumping their petals waiting to be adopted and cared for by you. 

The metro sign gives you a hint of what is in store with it's red tulip shaped lights pointing to the sign.

I arrived when it opened at 10am and savored the quiet, winding my way around plants so healthy and strong.  They looked happy and well cared for.

There are a couple of stalls devoted strictly to seeds.  You can find anything you desire whether it be plant, vegetable or herb seeds. 

This market does not only sell flowers, of course not; beautiful lanterns, garden decor, baskets, bird cages, wind chimes, candelabras and much more sit next to these flowers, vying for a little attention. 

I will let you relax and have a seat in this small piece of paradise.  We can continue our little tour tomorrow. 

Have a wonderful day and don't forget to stop and smell the roses along the way.
