    Weather in Puglia in May

    The weather in Puglia in May is one of the best for garden lovers.  La Cutura is an 86-acre botanical garden near Lecce. Wander around the rock garden with its agave plants and cacti, La Serra with its succulents and tropical plants from Latin America and Africa before heading to the Mediterranean garden pricked by pines and cypress trees, juniper, sage, rosemary, buckthorn, and honeysuckle.

    At Castello di Ugento, a 17th-century castle in Puglia, now a luxury boutique hotel, cooking school and museum and contemporary art exhibition space, the walled kitchen garden dates back to the 18th century. It was the first area of the castle to be restored and now the ‘giardino di piante utili’ or Garden of Useful plants is once more supplying fruit, vegetables, and herbs for the castle’s kitchen. The temperatures in Puglia in May are now in the low 20s helping the cherries to ripen. The rich red cherries are now ready to be picked along with zucchini flowers and rocket. It’s also a peaceful place to wander, sit and soak up the silence.
