CITY-CULTURE

Whatnot for balcony and terrace gardeners in the heart of Paris. The Marché aux Fleurs, a fragrant and picturesque potted-flower, shrub and tree market on l'Île de la Cité, dates to the early 1800's. Interesting to stroll through the stands and shops, green thumb or not. Place Louis-Lépine, Quai de la Corse.

Vocabulary
les trucs:  things, whatnot
avoir la main verte: to have a green thumb (to have a knack with plants)
