After residing in Paris for 15 years, owner Liza Fiorentinos was inspired by the greenery covering the architectural buildings in the City of Light. She channeled that vision to open this garden shop, offering assorted greens ($25–$575), live-plant frames ($175) made out of wood or Plexiglas and decorative moss purses ($25–$300). A specialty is the apartment-friendly terrariums ($25–$150) that require misting just once a week, including lavender aromatherapy ($35) and Buddha-shaped ($55) varieties. Check the website for a schedule of in-store classes ($40–$50) that include all the materials necessary to concoct a personalized piece.
