Jardin des Plantes 🌸 Cherry Blossoms

I’m trying hard to get your April Paris letter done ✏️ 

And mailed 📮 out 💌 in APRIL 🌸🙏🤞

Saturday I went to research 🔬🌸 at Jardin des Plants 🌱 

Everyone 

And their mother was out getting photographed

Amongst the annual cherry blossoms 🌸 

Preferably pretty in PINK 🌸
*Here’s a park tip 👍
Don’t bring water.Take some red globe grapes 🍇 You will stay hydrated + get a shot of resveratrol (in the skins).Thank you Dr.Greger.

It’s Sakura 🌸 in April in Paris

Sakura’s significance in Japan
 is due to its evanescent beauty, which resonates with the Buddhist ethos of life’s illusory nature. The cherry tree blooms en masse during the spring, and its blossoms die within a week of their flowering, making their beauty both intense and short-lived.
 

Celebrations are on everywhere 

Some past 🌸


April
 

In 🌸 Paris letters.🌸

A sneak peek at my April sketch 🌸 WIP🤞

    Having never been to Jardin des Plantes in springtime, I love seeing it through your eyes. So much beauty. You even captured Barbie visiting the Jardin!

    Big merci for all the work you put in getting these posts out to us…and the bonus of seeing your past Printemps letters all together. Beautiful!
