This Netherlands flower festival takes place in the town of Venlo every ten years. Listed by CNN as one of the world's top 2012 destinations, Floriade uses fields of flowers, stylish pavilions and a series of stalls to explore global flora and greenery.
But the expo is not only about flowers; it shows trees, herbs, fruit and vegetables, uncovers environmental topics and reveals new ways of looking at the role of plants in our lives.
