It's Poppy Season in Provence


It is poppy season in Provence - along the roads, in the meadows, even in the vineyards - right now those little red flowers pop up all over the place. Here today, gone tomorrow - they are so pretty , they just make everyone smile.

  1. I miss seeing them this year. Driving the roads in France, it is just like a little kiss scattered in the fields. Poppies are so beautiful. Thanks for sharing. Susan

  6. I took a drive up into the valley this weekend and I too was entranced by the poppies. The way the sun seems to light them up is amazing. As is the color of the new leaves on the vines...and you caught them both!
