WELCOME TO MY BLOG.

I've always had an interest in gardens and in the natural world. I soon realized that these were more than just flowers to me, but people, places, pictures, history, thoughts...
Starting from a detail seen during one of my visits, unexpected worlds come out, sometimes turned to the past, others to the future.

Travel in a Garden invites you to discover them.

Spring flowers in the words of a persian poet.


For herbs and violets and roses of many colours you would say that heaven down came from the blue sky   (Bahar, 20th century) 

Per l’erbe e le violette e le rose dai molti colori diresti che il paradiso è giù venuto dal cielo azzurro  
(Bahar, XX sec.)
