A Colourful World opens on August 28, and rose breeders and propagators will be showing their huge assortments and latest cultivars. The roses will be used in colourful and creative arrangements, reflecting the atmosphere for the various export countries represented at the event.

Well known Dutch rose breeders, including De Ruiter, Olij, Preesman and Interrose, will be taking part in A Colourful World. And arrangers Eline Eveleens and Nicky Markslag will provide the artistic input for the themed show, using exciting and unusual arrangements of roses.

Housed under the 2,000 sqm glass roof, the rose display is one of 12 exhibitions to be held at the Floriade. The exhibition will stay open until October 20, by which time it will have showcased everything from flowers and bulbs to bushes and shrubs.
