The rooms in bloom: the garden of rebirth – as defined by the author of so much beauty Rossella Pezzino de Geronimo – mirror of the soul and path of growth of the artist, a symbolic place that leads the visitor towards an “inner journey” among a thousand species of rare tropical and sub-tropical plants, contemporary sculptures, and an ornamental representation of the four elements: air, water, earth and fire”.

A 7-hectare garden surrounding a neoclassical country villa, built in the 19th century.

A paradise that began in 2000 with the idea of creating a romantic and welcoming garden, divided into connected rooms, with a natural effect: a sensory journey that is revealed little by little, which has as its common thread the intense colors and scents of climbing plants and of flowering shrubs, enriched by the rhythmic and constant sound of the water flowing from the lakes and courses full of colored water lilies.

In 2016 Rossella Pezzino de Geronimo created the garden of elsewhere. A symbolic and imaginative garden that opens with a stream by crossing which you purify yourself. The passage is not easy, one is forced to jump on small islands of disconnected lava stone and is placed in the center of a black and white cloud, to symbolize yin and yang, or the complementarity between light and dark.

At the end of the path, there is a large circular sculpture depicting the oroburo: the snake biting its own tail, a symbol of death and rebirth.

In 2017 Rossella completed the second element: fire. An interesting path that envelops the visitor who finds himself strolling among the rare exotic plants which, due to the color of their leaves, flowers and fruits, evoke flames.

In 2018 the creation of the third element: water. An enchanting, long and articulated stream, dotted with lotus flowers and tropical water lilies, crossed by multiple and cheerful waterfalls, whose source comes from imposing lava rocks and all around the first plants to appear on earth: ferns, equisetum and grasses of various sizes and of all kinds.

During 2019, in a hilly terraced area, surrounded by olive trees, oaks, pistachios and centuries-old almond trees that grow in the midst of spectacular lava boulders of the most diverse shapes and sizes, the last element was designed and created: air. A place that today is studded with multicolored roses planted in line and on several floors, as if to evoke the thousand shades and streaks of the sky at dawn and dusk.

This dreamlike landscape is sometimes interrupted by spectacular white hydrangeas, iceberg roses and plants with dark leaves set among lava boulders. A visionary walk that opens onto winding paths that run between imaginative black and white clouds, flashes of blue sky and many plants with warm colors to evoke the sun: a creative dream that leaves its mark.

A sensory journey, a unique and suggestive tour, a real life experience which in the “Rooms in Bloom” is completed with delicious and appetizing finger food tastings.

An earthly paradise that restores balance and reconciles the senses.

The garden hosts events, weddings, ceremonies and outdoor shows.
