\"\"<\/a>Alain Baraton recommends the garden at Mus\u00e9e Rodin for the perfume of roses. Colleen\u2019s Paris recommends you hurry before all the petals fall off. It is the end of July. The alternative is to save the date for next year. You will be swept away by the variety of scents. Early Saturday morning, Mr. Baraton convinced me to make the museum\u2019s garden my focus for the morning. He responded to a listener\u2019s question on the radio: If one is in Paris, what garden would he recommend for a garden visit? He saw rabbits in the garden; I saw the Auguste Rodin\u2019s Le Penseur (The Thinker) surrounded by roses in an assorted rainbow blend of pinks, whites, purples, oranges, etc. Visiting the garden first around 11 am, then a swing through the museum was good timing to take our lunch at the garden caf\u00e9 restaurant caf\u00e9-restaurant \u00ab L’Augustine \u00bb. What I thought would be a quick visit, turned into a few hours of relaxation.<\/p>\n

More information<\/h3>\n

I had to use some detective sleuthing to find the names of certain roses. A tag on one listed Andr\u00e9 Eve<\/a> <\/strong>as a source of rose identity. \u00a0They have roses pre-and post-1867 and 280 varieties available year round.<\/p>\n

The recently opened L’Augustine<\/a><\/strong>\u2019s chef, Amandine Chaignot, designs the seasonal dishes and the Maison Len\u00f4tre provides the sweet desserts.<\/p>\n

The radio station France Inter<\/a><\/strong> produces the gardening program, La main verte (The green hand). With the translation, it appears the French use the whole hand for their jardinage (gardening) and Anglos use only a green thumb. For the roses, you only need your nose to enjoy the perfume.<\/p>\n
