Mordovia presented a floral composition at the "Future in Flowers" festival

---

The “Future in Flowers” festival was launched at the International RUSSIA EXPO on May 21. Guests will be able to see 100 million flowers, over 100 floral expositions, floral art objects from different parts of Russia. They were arranged on flowerbeds prepared by all the participants of the Exposition.

Mordovia presented a floral composition, whose essential concept is that the future of the republic lies in children. The flowerbed will become not only a decoration, but also a symbol of the future of the region. In the center there is a structure of birds and a nest with eggs. The art object is framed by fresh flowers. One of them is a spring forest flower lungwort. It has been growing in the forests of Russia since ancient times and grows in Mordovia. Marigolds, lobelias and juniper complement the composition.

Another symbolic meaning of the floristic object is the diversity of cultural heritage of the republic's peoples and at the same time the unity and harmony of ethnic groups.

The “Future in Flowers” festival will last until July 8. Especially for it, a circular exposition was built on the Industrial Square, where flowerbeds of the regions are presented. In addition, there is a workshop of the same name, where Russian breeders present their achievements - they will demonstrate 400 varieties of peonies, 140 varieties of lilacs, 120 varieties of irises and 250 varieties of roses from different parts of our country. Vertical flowerbeds prepared by state corporations and other thematic expositions appeared on the territory of VDNH. In total, 100 million flowers are used for the festival at the Exposition.

“Today we have opened a festival with no analogues in the world. The RUSSIA EXPO features flower arrangements of ministries, major corporations and all 89 regions. Each of them demonstrates its view of the future through natural and technological features. There will be many masterclasses and other events for guests. We invite everyone to this incredible festival of beauty - there has never been and will never be anything like it anywhere else!” Natalia Virtuozova, Director General of the RUSSIA EXPO, said.
