Ripafiorita in Borgo, Riparbella in bloom

The fifth edition of the Ripafiorita Borgo in fiore competition sees themed floral installations set up around the village: lavender planters, colourful umbrellas hanging from above, nineteenth-century furniture transformed into planters, and a path through murals.

Participants must decorate windowsills, balconies, terraces, staircases, corners, gardens and shops with flowers, registering on the website. A technical jury composed of architects, photographers, florists and journalists will judge the entries.
