Tuscany, Italy. One of the most beautiful regions in central Italy is known for its gorgeous valleys, ancient villas, wine and cuisine. Cypress Tree, although is found everywhere in Italy, definitely defines and is a signature feature of the Tuscan landscape.
The tree was brought to Italy by the Phoenicians and Greeks, meanwhile the Etruscan brought it to Tuscany. Its wood is extremely fragrant and good for making essential oil. In fact, Italians plant these trees around their houses, churches, cemeteries or roads, so that the scent would guard against the demons.
