It’s the spring show you don’t want to miss: the blooming of colorful flowers on the Piani di Castelluccio plain in Umbria, near Castelluccio di Norcia, taking place every year between May and July.

This is where the prized ‘lenticchia di Castelluccio di Norcia IGP’ is grown. The white flowers of the lentils bloom from May to July, along with several other species of flowers, which are normally considered invasive weeds in cultivated fields where they’re removed using pesticides; whereas, in the Castelluccio plain, pesticides are not used, resulting in that amazing flowers show that is known as ‘La Fiorita,’ a mix of yellow, red, blue and white flowers dotting the plain.
