The
streets of Venice are alive and in bloom at The Venetian and The Palazzo with a
first-of-its-kind floral installation at the resorts.
The
new summer display inspired by Venice’s Carnivale di Venezia celebrations took
two years for the floral and horticulture teams to create from inception to
completion. Hundreds of hours went into design and art direction. The
spectacular display was first constructed on a computer model which took three
months to build. Venetian women topiaries that stand approximately nine feet
tall are the focal point of the summer display.
A
team of 20 floral designers, gardeners, and engineers contributed more than
1,600 total hours toward the installation of the summer floral display. The
topiary dresses are each constructed from approximately 2,500 flowers including
roses, carnations, baby’s breath, Gerber daisies, phalaenopsis orchids, spider
mums, and anthurium.
The
new installation can be seen through September 1, with the décor and colors
changing throughout the summer months:
· For June, a touch of wedding glamour
is seen throughout the display with shades of white, pinks, peaches, and
creams.
· In July, hot summer nights transform
the gardens with jewel tones in hot pinks, purples, and reds.
· And in August, to finish up the
three-month show, the gardens and topiaries will begin to show the transition
into autumn with orange, yellows, reds, and browns.
The
gardens are adorned with a variety of plans including hydrangeas, chrysanthemums,
kalanchoes, fleurette mums, ivy, ferns, and various topiaries with different
geometric forms to enhance the Venezia feel.
