The annual chrysanthemum show, organised by the Parks and Horticulture Authority (PHA) of Lahore at Jilani Park, concluded on Monday after a successful two-week run.
According to the spokesperson, the exhibition, which opened to members of the public on Dec. 4, featured more than 50 vibrant specimens of chrysanthemums.
The venue was decorated with over 35,000 flowers, showcasing a variety of chrysanthemums and marigolds, among others. The main attraction was the innovative use of flowers to craft topiaries of animals such as peacocks and giraffes, the spokesperson added.
As part of the event, the PHA also hosted a cut flower competition, drawing participants from Lahore College for Women University (LCWU), Kinnaird College for Women and the National College of Arts (NCA).
