There is a flower, the rose, which more than any other inspired singers and lovers, since ancient times. We discovered a true Italian excellence, an open air temple dedicated to more than 800 varieties of roses: The Garden Museum of Dusty Rose, near Modena. Here research and beauty, science and poetry meet, spread over a 43-hectares area. Within the park there are the nursery and the museum, where really interesting labs and courses about cooking, art, literature or botanics are organised – and in all of them the absolute star is the rose. Expert consultants offer free advice on plant care, pruning, which type of rose to choose and what’s the most suitable type of soil, providing visitors their specific expertise. A true landscape, scientific, historic jewel, a source of knowledge and beauty. Indeed remember that:
"If Zeus would like to donate a kingdom to the flowers, rose would reign over all" (Sappho)
