Brussels Carpet of Flowers

Staying at the Hotel Novotel Brussels Airport.

The Brussels Flower Carpet is a special event that takes place once every two years in Brussels, where the Grand Place Square is transformed into a mass of colour. The flowering star of the Brussels Flower Carpet is the begonia and 300 of these beautiful flowers are used for every square metre of this floral masterpiece. Belgium is one of the lead producers of the begonia cultivating 60 million every year and this is why it is the flower of choice for the Brussels Flower Carpet. The
begonia is also known for its robustness and ability to survive during bad weather, meaning that the Flower Carpet will look as fresh as it did when the first begonia was planted!
