Provence France is located in the south-eastern part of
France. It is divided into six regions which are Bouches du Rhone, Var, Alpes
Maritimes, Vaucluse, Alpes de Haute Provence, and Hautes Alpes.
Provence is famous for the beauty of its villages and
landscapes, the warmth of its climate, the smell of the lavender and sunflower,
the allure of its lifestyle a sunshine, and olive oil-based Mediterranean
civilization that attracts us all. Lavender fields is a genus of 39 species of
flowering plants in the mint family, Lamiaceae. Many members of the genus are
widely cultivated in temperate climates as ornamental plants for garden and
landscape use, and also commercially for extraction of essential oils. Popular
destination for any photographer, the vast fields of purple little flowers and
the beautiful yellow sunflower can make some stunning scenery.
The lavender in the Luberon blooms from around the last week
of June to the beginning of August when it is harvested. It is usually at its
peak in early July, but this depends on the rainfall in the year.If you want to
see sunflowers and lavender together, sunflowers are in full colour in
July-August. You may also find lavender fields that contain a stone borie,
which makes a more interesting photo than just the lavender.
