Europe - Vine flower

The vine is one of the oldest recorded plants on earth. Remains of this rustic shrub recovered since prehistoric times explain why the vine is so intimately linked on a cultural, food and commercial level to many civilisations and still remains a powerful symbol of togetherness and sharing. Its fresh and delicate flowers blossom in June, hiding within them a wonderful promise of happiness: burgeoning grapes, the mythical fruit at the origin of wine, a drink long considered sacred, dedicated to gods and heroes.
