Concept

This floral exhibition is made possible through the collaboration of a leading flower bulb producer and exporter from the Netherlands. All year round, experts search for new flower bulb varieties to plant in the park. Special attention is given to the diversity of color schemes and blooming periods.

Are there still tulips in bloom?

Enjoy this floral splendor with its various blooming stages: early, mid and late blooming. It is impossible to have all flowers in bloom at the same time. Floralia follows the rhythms of nature and weather conditions, making it difficult to pinpoint exactly when is the best time to visit. Early-flowering varieties are crocuses, daffodils, hyacinths. Mid-April is more likely to be tulips, grape hyacinths, hyacinths and Fritillaria imperialis. Late tulips are still available in late April.
