Potpourri

Marrakech, Morocco

Colorful potpourri displayed in the souks of Marrakech, Morocco. The medina (old city) fills your senses with sights, sounds and smells and the potpourri fits right in to this colorful, almost overwhelming environment. The potpourri is made from dried flowers from the prickly pear cactus. The surrounding Atlas Mountains are filled with the cactus and the flowers that bloom in the late spring are harvested and dried before making their way to the markets.
