Casa dei Cubicoli floreali, Ancient Roman domus in Pompeii, Italy.

The Casa dei Cubicoli Floreali features rooms decorated with garden-themed frescoes depicting oleander, myrtle, and lemon trees against black backgrounds.

The excavation of this residential structure took place in two phases, with initial discoveries in 1913 and subsequent investigations in 1951.

The walls display Egyptian deities and Bacchic scenes, reflecting the mixture of religious influences in Pompeii before the Vesuvius eruption.

The residence contains multiple chambers with preserved wall paintings, including a barrel-vaulted ceiling in Room 11 and decorative elements along the south wall.

Archaeological findings revealed approximately 100 wine amphoras within the house, suggesting the owner might have been involved in wine trading.
