Located in the park of Villa Ormond, it develops on two venues hosting exhibitions and activities: the Winter building, permanent location, and the Prediali liberty greenhouse, pavilion for the temporary exhibitions.

The idea of Floriseum was born from the donation that the widow of the carnations hybridizer Ermanno Moro made to the City of Sanremo: the entire collection of documents of her husband was the first nucleus of the Museum and is now located on the upper floor of Winter building. Welcoming the visitors on the ground floor, there is an introductory movie about Sanremo and the floriculture tradition, as well as a multimedia totem depicting the botanical species of the Villa Ormond park and some informational displays about the activities of the several research institutes participating in the center activities.
Floriseum is in fact led by a scientific committee dealing with exhibitions and events whose members, among the others, are the City of Sanremo, departments and Centers of the University of Genoa, but also the Experimental Institute for the Floriculture of Sanremo (CREA-FSO) and the Regional Institute for the Floriculture (IRF).
