alterarosa (which refers to Altera Roma, as Avignon is also known) has become the highlight of the year for lovers of roses, Provence and cultural heritage. Last year, over 24 000 enthusiasts attended this special rose weekend in the prestigious Benedict XII Cloister at the Palace of the Popes, where new breeds of roses were unveiled for the very first time.
Avignon Tourisme and Jardiland, co-founders of the alterarosa event, have prepared this much-anticipated edition.
The 2009 alterarosa rose show at the Palace of the Popes takes place during four entire days, throughout the entire Ascension holiday weekend.
The greatest European rose growers collaborate with alterarosa, bringing their new creations to the Palace of the Popes to present them for the very first time to the public, and tell their story. |
