Concept

T

he orchard is a symbol of creation and peace. The fruit is a symbol of continuity. An Apple tree and its fruit are always connected by an invisible and strong thread.

The garden is dedicated to the academician Yevgeny Nikolaevich Sedov – a world-famous fruit breeder who celebrated his 90th anniversary this year. In the difficult post-war years of General militarization, he chose the thorny path of a breeder, aiming to feed and fortify the population of his homeland. Yevgeny Nikolaevich is the author of dozens of varieties and the scab resistance gene – one of the most common diseases of Apple trees that spoil crops.

The design solution of the garden is based on the actual themes of low-maintenance and eco-friendliness. The garden combines both functional and decorative aspects. The shape of the superimposed layout of the site made of granite chips is similar to the smooth lines of a star. The main volume in the garden is created by an alley of Apple trees Veniaminovskoye (selection of Evgeny Nikolaevich).
Let our gardens bloom again and again! And we treat them with reverence and care, like we do for Peace on the whole Earth.
