A Fine Living and Luxury Portal to the Charm and Elegance of the Italian Lifestyle

Summer Colors of Tuscany

 

It is hard not to be captivated by the colors of Tuscany. Most people think of Tuscan colors to be that of earth tones – and of course that famous poppy red. But spring and summer brings a wondrous colorful array of blooms, flowers and plants. Yes, nature surely shines this time of year on the Tuscan countrysides, and my good friend Turid shares some photos of what surrounds her life in Tuscany. ~Richard J. Michelli
