Yes, I'm done editing some of the 250 photos I took at the Jardin botanique des Serres d'Auteuil. Botanic gardens make me so extremely happy, especially if they include palm trees, cactus plants and succulents, that it always results in too many pictures 😉 This garden in Paris has been on my must-visit list for Read article…

Molitor rooftop garden in Paris
Last week my day started with a visit of the new garden and roof bar of the iconic Piscine Molitor. Well it's not "just" a swimming pool, but you can sleep, dine and workout here too. This spring Molitor, built in 1929, finally reopened its doors after 25 years. When Molitor closed in 1989, it Read article…
Les Jardins de Montplaisir
Remember when I mentioned that I wish we had a Farmer's Market around here? Well we still don't have one, but we do have a garden in the Oise where you can pick your own fruit, veggies and flowers, called les Jardins de Montplaisir. All seasonal, natural, although not 100% organic. I loved it, it Read article…

My Purple Heart plant above surprised me with its first and one & only purple flower! It Read article…
Frozen Indian Cress

That's what happened to me last week when I wanted to freeze a bunch of Indian cress flowers. One of my Nasturtium plants is growing so fast that we can't keep up eating flowers Read article…
Sixteen
I’m a sucker for romance and happy couples. Not in a candle light & roses kind of way, but for simple and real love. Ever since seeing this video by Stylelikeu earlier this year, I wondered if it would be too personal to share our own love story here, but then: this world never has Read article…
Giant Papavers
The other day when visiting a vide-grenier with my sister, we bumped into these giant papavers in one of the community gardens. I was tempted to bring them home, but she insisted on only taking their picture. So I did. Always listen to your little sister, right? In the past months I photographed quite a Read article…
Weekend inspiration #13
The other day during Golden Hour: a beautiful magnolia tree exagerating its spring feelings. No filter needed 😉
Sunbathing Hellebores
Flowerblog or not, I made these photos for my mom because she loves Hellebores and I love her. ♥
