After last year’s accidental fall into the lily pond, I decided it best to leave Chia at home when I visited the Giardino Semplice here in Florence. She had a nice long walk in the morning, so wasn’t too upset to be left behind.
It was a glorious sunny day and I had the gardens practically to myself. Easter Monday is a holiday here, and I expected a crowd,so was pleasantly surprised.
The roses and azaleas are in full bloom and so beautiful. Lots of plants I didn’t recognize too.
I have decided that I will offer to escort clients to the various gardens around Florence upon request. If I have time away from shopping that is! Couldn’t resist popping into one of my favorite shops on my way back from the gardens. Love this watermelon colored cashmere! It is being paired with gray and with navy. Of course, the shopkeepers all wanted to know where Chia was…
