Spring bursts into bloom on the Amalfi Coast
Spring came a bit late this year, but it wasn’t stingy with its beautiful colors and much needed cheeriness. One sunny day when the internet went kaput I took a ride up to Ravello and headed toward the Villa Cimbrone. I’ve shared photos of a picture perfect autumn stroll through the Villa Cimbrone and a winter walk in Ravello, but I haven’t yet covered my favorite season of the year on the Amalfi Coast. Bright bursts of yellow, electric pink blooms and, yes, there will be wisteria! I try to visit the Villa Cimbrone each spring, but I’ve never managed to time it with the blossoming of the wisteria covered walkways in the garden. This year I was in luck as the much of the wisteria was at its peak. So just sit back, enjoy a cup of tea and savor the beautiful blossoms, garden setting and all the loveliness of spring at the Villa Cimbrone in Ravello!
The Villa Cimbrone gardens are the perfect spot to enjoy spring
Walking under the wisteria in the Villa Cimbrone
The delicious scent of spring on the Amalfi Coast
Amidst the spring blossoms
Hanging wisteria buds ready to bloom
Stepping out to the Terrace of Infinity at the Villa Cimbrone
No flowers but an infinitely good mustache
From the infinite to tiny wild cyclamen

This may just be the actual stairway to paradise ...
Wisteria blossoms against the backdrop of olive trees
Not sure what these are, but I wanted to take them home with me.
Perfect spring blossom
Spring colors and marvelous views at the Villa Cimbrone
