World’s Biggest Carpet Of Flowers
August 18, 2008

“Some 700,000 begonias will cover Brussels’ main square beginning Friday to form a flower carpet of vibrant colors, a big draw to the Belgium capital that happens every other year but will wither and brown by the end of the weekend. Scarlet red, pure white, sunshine yellow, salmon pink and bright orange begonias were being pressed into the intricate pattern of a 17th-century French carpet, balanced by the darker shades of purple dahlias, green grass and brown soil.” w/ photos
