Giardino dell'Iris is a botanical garden known for its cultivation of iris flowers. It's like the go-to spot for all things iris-related! The garden hosts an annual competition where growers from around the world send their best blooms to compete for the prestigious 'Premio Firenze.' With over 1,500 varieties on display during the competition, it's a colorful paradise for flower enthusiasts. Plus, the view of Florence and its hills from the garden is just breathtaking. It's basically a must-visit for anyone who loves flowers or just wants to soak in some natural beauty in Italy, but keep in mind that blooming season only lasts one month: usually between April 25th and May 20th!
