A New Concept Store—Les Mauvaises Graines for Gardeners
The French are the masters of the concept store.
First came Colette and l’Eclaireur (curated fashion), followed by Merci (curated fashion w/ profits going to charity), and Un Dimanche à Paris (chocolate).
The latest addition is Les Mauvaises Graines, a concept store for urban gardeners. Equal parts gallery, nursery, and curiosity, the store displays original works by sculptors, visual artists, even taxidermists, alongside select annuals and perennials.
Plants are grown in Ile de France without chemical fertilizers or pesticides, and destined for city rooftop gardens, balconies, and patios.
The staff also designs and maintains custom gardens in private homes, and has undertaken care of a neglected plot of land near the shop, at 25, rue Custine, 18th.
A must-see for garden lovers and interior designers.
