This floral-focused stroll in Paris is the favorite of Sandra Sigman, the celebrated florist and author of the book “French Blooms,” about the distinctive French style of flower arrangement. Just short of three miles, it weaves through the gardens, green spaces and flower shops of the 6th and 7th arrondissements.
“I love the French approach to gardens. Although the spaces themselves are quite formal in their design, that doesn’t stop people from relaxing and enjoying their beauty.”
