I couldn't help but notice nearly every park, church and private garden in Paris had Foxglove plants blooming. Parisian gardeners certainly have a love affair with Foxgloves [Digitalis]. Their Parks Department must plant thousands of them.
This is in the rear garden of Notre Dame. The beds wrap around the perimeter.
These beds and monument are inside a fenced area on the back side of the cathedral.
Another view of the Notre Dame flower garden.
These flower beds are in the Tuileries Gardens.
That roofline view has been there for a long time. The light in these photos is not great as it was getting ready to rain.
It must take a large staff to maintain all the flower gardens, parks and monument sites in Paris city limits.
I can understand why Parisians love their parks. The density of residential housing is high so people don't own individual homes like we do with their own yards. The only place to go to get out of the house is to the public parks, museums, etc., so they make them very beautiful.
