Snowing Spring

AN ENCHANTING WHITE FLAKES DANCE

 
 

Coming home during the spring is always a unique experience: colors, smells and sounds surround you completely. 

 
 

It is a wonderful period where our large poplars start the "flowering". This phenomenon happens once a year in the spring, when these trees during the blossoming, release this white "cotton" that are meant to carry the seeds at a great distance from the plant by harnessing the power of the wind. 

 
 
"Pappi" are called in Italian. 
These enchanted white flakes dance in the air, whitening the ground as if it were snow.
