Sometimes you can’t see the trees for the forest. I love August when the trees are full and lush and you can’t tell where one tree starts and another ends.

….Italy is known for wine and olives
In Assisi we were told by our cab driver that the wine in the region of Umbria was good but the olive oil was great. Every farm had olive trees.

….I love these Cyprus trees
It’s a tree that I’ve only ever seen in paintings and photos but in Italy and certainly in the outskirts of Florence and in the hills of Assisi they are everywhere. Thanks to Becca Givens for hosting Sunday Trees.

Lemon tree in Lorenzo il Magnifico’s courtyard, Florence, Italy.
….Italy had trees that I had never seen before
We called these trees camouflage trees because of the bark. The leaves actually looked liked the leaves of a maple tree. We saw these ones in Lucca.


After doing a little research I discovered that these are sycamore trees. As always, thanks to Becca Givens for hosting Sunday Trees.
….I’m back with some interesting trees from Italy
Every week Becca Givens hosts Sunday Trees. Do you like trees as much as we do? Why not post your favourite trees every Sunday (or sometime during the week) and join the fun.
