The name of this Villa, immersed in the greenery of Mugello valley between S. Agata and Galliano, in the town of Scarperia, derives from old Florentine language and it means "bud". In fact, as a famous anecdote relates, Villa Medicea Lo Sprocco enjoys the first ray of sunshine in the morning and the last beam of light at sunset, from which the first bud springs.
