A little bit of a color...a little bit of out-of-the-box thinking, a great floral architect...and Mother Nature herself! It just goes to show the grandeur of nature and the natural beauty that is before us all everyday....
"Since 1971, it is the 16
th carpet of flowers on the Grand Place in Brussels .This year, the flower carpet designed by floral architect Mark
Schautteet is inspired by the tapestry of the French
Savonnerie, which dates from the 17
th century. 700,000 begonias form a
colourfum motif on which appears the patron saint Saint-Michel and the iris of the Brussels Region. One hundred volunteers have brought flowers on the Grand Place . For the floral carpet of flowers to be perfect, the design is fully represented in size on a transparent plastic perforated to create a micro-humid climate which must keep fresh flowers and colorful. " How cool!?
