The Stavropol region is the breadbasket of Russia, where many crops are grown on the fertile black soil. The flowerbed of the Stavropol region is a symbol of caring for natural resources and love for the land. It reminds us how important it is to preserve and develop agriculture, which lays the foundation for prosperity of both the region and the entire country.

The Stavropol region's exposition demonstrates the three stages of growth of wheat - the region’s key cereal. The first stage is the heading phase, the second is the flowering phase, the third is the ripening phase. An art object in the center of the composition is the ‘Palms’. It looks like hands made of translucent white metal mesh, folded in the shape of a heart. They carefully ‘hold’ a bunch of golden wheat ears. The ‘heart’ is filled with red roses as a symbol of love and prosperity. In the dark, the composition is backlit by many luminous ears of wheat on solar batteries. The art object is additionally illuminated from the inside to create a feeling of ‘inner light’ and warmth of the entire exposition.

The granary of Russia is, of course, famous for its wheat yield. Wheat is the leading grain crop in many countries. It is an annual herbaceous plant 30–150 cm tall. It is traditionally used to produce bread and bakery products, pasta, pastries, desserts, and beverage production. Wheat was one of the first grains domesticated by man.
