   The first time such event was conducted in our city in 1991. Since then in the last month of spring the best floral designers of Russia and of other countries represent the art of floral design at the Neva river banks. From the very beginning St. Petersburg Administration and LOMO PLC provided support to the festival.
   Last anniversary year the festival distinguished from the previous ones by the broaden quantity of foreign guests - more than 100 floral designers approximately from 15 countries of the world.
   The exhibition of floral designers from Australia and a special status of flower arrangers from this far continent were the peculiarities of the event. They were not only the participants of the event, but also official representatives of Melbourne, twin-city of St. Petersburg. This year such quantity of floral designers is not expected but we sure the event will become the bright forerunner of the approaching summer.
