Lavender and sunflower fields in Florence

Provence is a region rich in color thanks to the multitude of species of flowers and trees that grow throughout the year. Among them, two are particularly distinguished as emblems of the region: the sunflower whose large yellow flower is always turned towards the sun and which was immortalized by the painter Vincent Van Gogh, lover of Provence and lavender, which gives off an incredible perfume and which covers the fields of the high plateaux of Provence of a beautiful deep violet. And today, we offer you both in one image!
