Flowerbed expositions not only showcase the flora and plants of the regions but also present their achievements. Agriculture, science, robust industry and talented people — come to the festival to discover what Russia takes pride in.

THE GRANARY OF RUSSIA: STAVROPOL REGION

Golden ears of wheat in the region's flowerbed immediately draw the attention of visitors. Wheat symbolizes agricultural success. It’s no secret that Stavropol, with its fertile black soil, is the granary of Russia. The floral display of Stavropol also represents love for the land and a careful attitude towards nature and its riches.

Interestingly, upon closer inspection, you can see that the display not only features wheat ears but also the three stages of cereal growth. The first tier shows the ear emergence phase, followed by flowering, and finally, the grain formation phase. At the center of the composition is the art object "Hands": hands made from semi-transparent white metal mesh, folded in the shape of a heart, gently "holding" a bouquet of golden wheat. The "heart" is filled with red roses, symbolizing love and prosperity.

YAMAL: HERITAGE AND HORIZONS. YAMALO-NENETS AUTONOMOUS AREA

The Yamalo-Nenets Autonomous Area is located in the Arctic zone in the north of the West Siberian Plain. Most of its territory lies beyond the Arctic Circle. The future of the region lies in this area, richly endowed by nature with resources. However, their development requires advanced industry and scientific approaches. Perhaps this is why the region’s floral display features a model of the Yamal LNG gas industry facilities, the Yuribey River bridge — the longest bridge crossing beyond the Arctic Circle, and a model of the "Snowflake" research station, where Arctic ecosystems will be studied. The composition is complemented by figures of polar bears and walruses in their natural habitat, as well as a reindeer herder's camp. These elements symbolize the careful treatment of nature and the preservation of the traditions of local peoples.

WE ARE FROM UDMURTIA!

Udmurtia chose an original design for its flowerbed. The floral display is adorned with an unusual art object — profiles of human faces. The idea is to show how people create the past, present and future of the region. The people of Udmurtia are its greatest wealth: the world-famous composer P.I. Tchaikovsky, the leading weapons designer of the XX century M.T. Kalashnikov, the cavalrywoman N.A. Durova and the Udmurt poet Kuzebay Gerd. Modern heroes of the republic include athletes and scientists, rural workers and factory workers, cultural figures, mothers of many children and many others.
