It helped to have my phone showing the type of garden I have and what I already produce. I'm a Master Gardener in California and am very appreciative of getting seeds new to me. Duh, not everyone has learned English so knock it off demanding that you're being oppressed. I look forward to reporting back the success stories. I'm very grateful for this lovely store.

As she gave me the change, my intuition flashed that she was up to something.....it was only when I had left the store that I realized she had given me lots of coins to distract me from having shorted me 5 Euros! The money is not the issue....You can be sure I will contact the Vilmorin owner about employing a thief!

The Marché aux Fleurs et aux Oiseaux is one of the oldest markets in Paris. Located at the Place…read moreLouis-Lépine, it dates back to 1808, when Napoleon Bonaparte ruled as Emperor of France and implemented a number of upgrades to the city, including several different food markets, la Colonne Vendôme, l'Eglise de la Madeleine, and rue de Rivoli. On any given Sunday, the Marché aux Oiseaux is one of the busiest spots in the city. During my last visit, three cages passed before my eyes within five minutes, as overjoyed children tugged on their parents' arms, pointing to their newfound feathered friends. Very cool flower stalls

I'm about 4 feathers away from getting myself a pet bird so I may not be the best person to judge…read morethis place, but if you want to see an odd little slice of Paris and you're not creeped out by caged birds, come here to the French Flower Market on a Sunday (8 a.m - 1 p.m.) when the flower vendors sleep in and turn the whole place over to the bird vendors. No lie. The place overflows with a ton of caged birds in every size and color and the tweeting and chirping is magnificent. On this day, they also sell bird seed, bird-care books, and bird cages. One guy, unclear on the concept, was even selling bunnies. WTF?? With their beautiful color patterns, feather designs, and graphic simplicity, birds are awesome to look at and this is a pretty sweet place to indulge. I can't imagine what size bribe I'd have to pay to what Customs official to sneak a French bird back into the country. Looking though, is free, and nobody seemed to care that I was there to look, not buy.
