The story

Moscow Flower Jam in Moscow

Moscow Flower Jam is an international urban landscaping competition and festival held as part of the city's Moscow Seasons program, pairing large-scale floral installations with sweets and preserves. Tens of thousands of plants, including rare species such as orchids, bamboo, and coconut palms, transform Novy Arbat and Tverskaya Square.

Municipal flower displays have decorated central Moscow's boulevards for summer seasons for decades, but Flower Jam turned that tradition into a competitive festival, inviting professional landscape designers to build temporary gardens judged for creativity rather than simply installed by city crews.

What is special

The part that makes it specific.

01

The place changes

Flower Jam is unusual among flower festivals for treating landscaping as a judged competition rather than static decoration: professional designers build entire temporary gardens, water features, hanging installations, and flower arches, that visitors walk through and compare across the festival's central sites

02

The mystery stays covered

The plant volume is substantial, past editions have involved 35,000 annuals, 45,000 perennials, and thousands of shrubs, grasses, and aquatic plants, alongside rare imports like olives, washingtonias, and orchids not typically seen growing outdoors in Moscow's climate

03

The city starts moving

The pairing with a jam and confectionery theme, tastings of unusual jams, candied fruits, and ice creams, gives the festival a culinary layer that keeps it from being purely a garden show
