ALMOND TREES FLOWERS 2010


WHITE ALMOND TREES IN SANTA AGNÈS VALLEY

Undoubtedly the most impressive natural winter spectacle is the flowering of the almond-trees of the island of Ibiza. This year maybe has not the showiness of other years, rains and overcoat winds have been part of the reasons, but anyway is enjoyable to walk around them again. In Ibiza we have no snow at all, but this white landscape remains us a bit the white element.

Besides the flower, we still have it´s nice smell, very estimated in the industry of the perfumes. The flower color is white or pink depending on the type of almond. Again the fields of the north of the island are the most spectacular, and there many persons peregrinate every day to walk between these trees that give a romantic touch to our fields. Maybe the favorite and already most famous site for this, is the rural little village of santa Agnès de Corona.
