Visitors can expect more than 100 kinds of flowers and plants, including special Ikenbana arrangements. Over 100 stalls will be set up, offering nursery plants, gardening tools, homemade products, and food items. The department has allocated around ₹40 lakh for the event, as per a report by Deccan Herald (DH).
A major highlight, setting it apart from the annual Lalbagh flower show, is a dedicated art display. Paintings by several artists, including noted Karnataka artist Rumale Chennabasaviah, will be showcased. Cultural programmes and competitions are also scheduled.
Groups such as the Cubbon Park Walkers’ Association, Rumale Art House, and Indo American Hybrid Seeds have supported the organising efforts. Kusuma said these collaborations have helped create a more complete visitor experience.
Entry fees are fixed at ₹30 for adults and ₹10 for children. Schoolchildren in uniform with valid identification can enter free of charge. Additional parking arrangements will be made for the duration of the show.
