Holly is the happiest dog in the world, always smiling.

[@elaineedwards2530]

i love how your pup goes everywhere with you. In Canada that is not possible.

[@susanmartins7410]

In Victoria, Bc, you can take your dog to many places, even shops

[@woofwoof9667]

Same with Australia. They are not allowed anywhere.Not even on boardwalks, outside shops, taxis Ubers nothing nowhere. Even if they're a service dog, it has happened multiple multiple times that they weren't allowed in to places. This whole country is one big rule book. If Nicki let her dog ride on her bike here in Aus as she does in Italy, they would be stopped by the first police to see them, huge fine, court date, and the Dog would be confiscated immediately. They would also make the nightly news for being so irresponsible and dangerous driving. This country doesn't like to see you live. It really is a horrible place.

That tree is "albizia julibrissin", also known as "Korean mimosa" or "Persian silk tree". It grows fast from seeds or root shoots in warm climates. We have two in our garden and the only downside is that when they flower you can't put anything underneath because the dropping flowers make everything sticky. But they really look gorgeous.

[@natpaler883]

You are such a lovely couple and your videos make me miss Italy coast so much, xx

[@sharonrichard2204]

As many have already said the tree is known as the Persian silk tree, pink silk tree, or mimosa. But the tree was introduced to Europe by an Italian nobleman Filippo degli Albizzi. We call it a trash tree as the blossoms leave a mess and the seeds scatter every where and the seedlings are difficult to remove. Very pretty when it is in someone else's yard ;-) Thanks for the wonderful video.

[@NickiPositano]

its a beautiful tree!

Mimosa tree ( can be invasive here in the states) Love your videos! My husbands paternal family is from Forio. Our first time visit was fall 2019. Hopefully we'll be allowed back soon~ We had rabbit up in the mountains and plenty of seafood by the ports. Wouldn't mind spending a few months there, but we'd miss our furbabies. Thank you for sharing the lovely Italian lifestyle~

[@tarasunjo]

We had a rabbit in a Taverna Verde restaurant. And Forio has best beaches on the island - Cava del Isola, Citara. We just love Ischia. Hopefully we'll be able to revisit it. Best of luck.

Our neighbors had a 60 year old pickled pear cactus, in started rotting and falling over into our yard and another neighbors yard too. That was tricky! I love see the bougainvillea we have that here too. Rhonna in Fremont, CA the east Bay Area. I think that was an acacia tree, our neighbors have one. I’m a sucker for geraniums. I don’t think they grow in Oregon, I don’t know. I think I will miss my Meyer lemon tree and raised bed veggie garden.

[@spanky12310]

Originally from China, mimosa or silk tree was introduced to the United States in 1745 and cultivated since the 18th century primarily for use as an ornamental. Mimosa remains a popular ornamental because of its fragrant and showy flowers.

Hi, I'm Carlo, Thank you, this problem is not only in Ischia, but in this whole area, human beings have a great ability to adapt, that's why we are still here, Italians, especially those from the south, have a great art, that of make do, so I don't know how but we'll be able to get by.😘👋

The tree appears to be an Australian native wattle or bottle brush. Grows well in temperate climates and doesn't need a lot of water to thrive on. Wondering how an Australian native ended up in Ischia? I enjoyed this video very much. Ischia is ridiculously and unimaginably pretty!
