250 years with Russia. The Republic of North Ossetia–Alania
The
flowerbed of the Republic of North Ossetia - Alania symbolizes the centuries-old
commonwealth with Russia — this year we celebrate the 250th anniversary of our
unity. In the center of the landscape composition there is an art object "Fatima Holding the Golden Sun." It is a symbol of the republic, which all its
residents and guests easily recognize. Behind the figure of Fatima there is a gate
of an ancient fortress, from which the history of Vladikavkaz, the capital of
the Republic of North Ossetia-Alania, began.
The
composition is decorated with seasonal plants in the colors of the flags of
Russia and Ossetia. The flowerbed is decorated with Draba bryoides, alpine
chickweed, mountain alyssum, tufted saxifrage, anemone, sedum false, gentiana
(gentian), primrose high piano and meadow grass.
