Hello Hivers!
It's raining cats and dogs outside today. While writing about Puy du Fou, I stumbled upon these photos of my trips to Jardiland while briefly living in France. For today's #MarketFriday initiated by @dswigle, let me take you for an invigorating tour inside a garden center.
Jardiland is a well known French specialist in the world of gardening, pets, decorations and art of living. My father-in-law is an avid gardener. I always tag along whenever he goes seed shopping.
Like a kid to a candy store, I took a lot of pictures for work reference. I am always curious to see which ornaments are available for purchase whenever I need to specify planters and pots for projects.
Natural daylight fills the whole garden center. It's well illuminated throughout the day. Their style of merchandising is also effective and clearly well organized.
Pots and planters of different shapes and sizes.
Modern planters, which one is your favorite?
Landscaping pebbles
Wood edgings for raised beds
A huge variety of outdoor plants
Raised Garden Bed Ideas
Different kinds of lettuce
Wood chips and pebbles for landscaping
Delosperma Congestum known as Gold Nugget Ice Plant is a succulent with evergreen leaves and starry white flowers that spreads like a carpet. Sempervivum or Houseleek is also a flowering succulent with rosette shaped flowers that require full sun and good drainage. These would be perfect for well drained green roofs.
Sedum Rupestre Angelina commonly called as Stonecrop is a low growing evergreen succulent that grows rapidly. Sedum Rubrotinctum known as Pork & Beans is a succulent with bright green leaves whose tips turn to bright red under full sun. These would be great as low maintenance plants and could be brought indoors.
I enjoy gardening. My favorite section apart from the flowers is the huge variety of cooking herbs. I still am not successful in raising sage and thyme in the Philippines. I recently tried growing beef heart tomatoes in tropical heat. There are flowers but they haven't produced yet.
What about you, do you like gardening?

I love this place, I might spend time all day here. 😊
I'd spend hours here again too 😊 Happy weekend!
Have a nice day!
You too 🙂
Thanks. ＾＾
A very clean and well-equipped place. The last time I was in France they were still using francs. I'm sure much has changed since then. I remember my favorite place being Brittany.
Hello Justin,thanks for stopping by, that was quite some time ago indeed. The salty crepes- Galette served with cider comes up when I think about the French Brittany.
What a wonderful place, so clean and bright. This place is so relaxing.
I remember whenever I was feeling sad, I would visit shops like this one, just window shopping, and I'd feel better afterwards.
Your photography is perfect! The place so clean.
Thank you so much @sreypov Have a lovely weekend 🙂
Thank you and You you too! 😍
Aww, this is definitely a place for me. Good thing I can't go there as I would spend all my money on these.
Hi Erikah,thanks so much for dropping by. Yes, the hardest part for me was leaving the shop and not purchasing anything else apart from packs of seeds.
