Peach trees in Cieza, Murcia, Spain

Spring hits differently in Cieza. It doesn"t gently unfold—it erupts with colour. Between February and March, this small city in Spain"s Murcia region is the epicentre of "La Floración," the flowering of peach trees. In a matter of days, more than 12,000 acres (5,000 hectares)—Spain"s largest municipal peach production—transform into the sea of colour we see in today"s image.
