About event
🌺 The museum is in bloom / An exotic visit to the summer flower beds
Banana trees, dahlias, dosna or ornamental sweet potatoes. From time immemorial, exotic plants have been a symbol of prestige, the discovery of distant lands and the art of horticulture. In the summer months, castle parks, city promenades and representative gardens were transformed into colorful parades of unusual shapes, colors and scents. Come and discover the world of plants that act as rare visitors from faraway places in our flower beds.
Another meeting from the Museum of Flowers series will take you among exotic annuals and ornamental plants. A themed exhibition, a lecture on carpet gardening, a creative workshop and summer refreshment in the form of homemade lemonade await you.
Discover their origin, interesting properties and methods of use in ornamental gardening.
Lecture: Carpet gardening
How were the famous carpet beds that decorated city parks and castle gardens created? Learn how gardeners created intricate ornaments and patterns from colorful plants and why this horticultural art was so popular at the turn of the 19th and 20th centuries.
