An impressionist garden in the Tuscan hills
I’ve just come back from a short stay in Tuscany where I visited the beautiful ‘Podere Puscina Flowers’ owned by 3 sisters.
A family run business in the very heart of Tuscany where Teresa, Mara and Laura grow their own local flowers respecting the biodiversity and nature.
I was greeted by Kira, their friendly dog and an incredible landscape. Walking through the fields was like being part of an impressionist painting. The colours of flowers, the bright blue sky, the magical wood at the end of the valley, together with the golden wheat fields were truly inspirational.
There were many amazing varieties of flowers such as: romantic English garden roses, corn flower, lavender, veronica, false goat’s beard, love-in-amist, scbious, alchemilla …
Cotinus
Cosmea simple and double
Sanguisorba, amni, love-in-a-mist, strawberry scabious
Acquilegia
Scabious
The one that captured my attention the most was the poppy. I’ve never seen so many different colours and varieties.
I really enjoyed my wonderful stay at Puscina an enchanted place where 3 families live and work in harmony with nature.
