"Fiori rosa fiori di pesco" (lit. 'Pink Flowers, Peach Flowers') is a 1970 song composed by Lucio Battisti (music) and Mogol (lyrics), arranged by Detto Mariano and performed by Lucio Battisti.

The song was composed back-to-back with Mina's "Insieme", and Battisti initially considered handing the song to her.[1] A massive success, it won the Festivalbar, marking the second victory in a row for Battisti following the 1969 win with "Acqua azzurra, acqua chiara".[1][2]

Artists who covered the song include Mina, Marcella Bella, Formula 3, Cristiano De André.[2]
