To the rose the queen among flowers, which has always punctuated life's most romantic moments,
Great Italian Gardens, the
network of the most beautiful gardens that can be visited in Italy, dedicates an itinerary:
In the Name of the Rose.
Each year
Great Italian Gardens promotes visits to selected gardens from its circuit as an opportunity to learn about or rediscover important collections of ancient and modern roses.
Thus was born the
In the Name of the Rose itinerary, a journey to discover the most beautiful rose gardens adhering to our circuit, which boast within them important collections of roses that draw labyrinths, such as that of the
Castle of Roses of Cordovado (Cordovado, PN), flower-lined avenues, such as the
Viale delle Rose of the
Sigurtą Garden Park (Vialeggio sul Mincio, VR), or even angel-wing shaped ones, such as the
Roseto Vacunae Rosae (Roccantica, RI) or even the extraordinary rose garden of
Villa d'Este in Tivoli, to name a few.
In the Name of the Rose is a special invitation to discover the romantic and extraordinary blooms of roses within the
Great Italian Gardens circuit, following its flowering cycle, different from region to region.
Since 2020
In the Name of the Rose has also been an itinerary for the discovery of the
Rosa Grandi Giardini Italiani® a bushy, large-flowered rose with an upright habit, dense, dark green foliage, highly resistant to disease and with an intense fragrance. The Rose is meant to be a souvenir, an olfactory reminder of a day spent in a network garden.
Let's get ready for an exciting and dreamlike journey among the network gardens.
