It is little wonder then that many of us have already begun to turn our thoughts to the spring season and the return of growing, sweet smelling things. We are referring of course to flowers, the loveliest of nature’s creations. Here in Croatia, visitors can see an abundance of colorful, breathtakingly beautiful flora of all kinds. Visitors can see fields covered with a lush carpet of poppies and other plants that grow profusely throughout our country.
