4. Garden of the roses

The Garden of the roses has been realized in one portion comprised between the Rampe street and the Delle Croci street, by the Florence Istitution. The Garden is a typical garden of breeding of the roses. It has constituted for decades one of the most important exposition of a tradition fiorentina garden and ulterior accessory of the street Dei Colli. Especially in May it presents with a great exposition of varieties cultivated roses.

Meaningful it is also the irrigation system: the reservior is localized up in the forest, behind the loggia of the Michelangelo Square, while a duct bring the water until to the the garden. In 1998 it has been enriched of a "international space" with the creation of a Japanese garden "Shorai" donated to the city of Florence from Kyoto and from the Zen temple "Kodai-Ji".
