Emerald heart of Siberia. Tomsk region

The centerpiece of the region's composition is a stylized sculpture of a cedar cone with four upward-facing hemispheres. They represent the four fundamental directions of development in the Tomsk region: science, education, industry, and culture.

Green is the key color in the composition. It symbolizes the vast forest expanses of the region, appears in the symbolism of the Tomsk coat of arms, and is the primary color in the concept of the "Emerald Heart of Siberia" stand. The cone symbolizes the heart of the green and coniferous forest-rich region, as well as the connection between nature and industry. The cedars in the flowerbed are a special pride of the Tomsk region.

The composition also includes plants such as blue fescue (Festuca glauca), sedge, and carlit blue fescue (Festuca gautieri "Pic Carlit"), which visually resemble the mosses and tussocks predominant in the landscapes of Tomsk forests. These plants are cold-resistant and maintain an attractive appearance despite weather conditions. Moreover, they complement the architectural structure of the composition, echoing the rounded shapes of the hemispheres. The grassy-sandy color scheme chosen for the plants symbolizes the importance of nature and ecology for the region.
