Florid artwork with Anthurium
The Anthurium cut flowers, used for this event have been supplied by Anthurium grower Anthurmiddendorp BV in Belgium (www.anthurmiddendorp.be).
One of the floral masterpieces made with the Anthurium and by an arranger friend, was a mega arrangement that only existed of various Anthurium cut flower varieties. In total more than 4,000 flowers were needed to realise this beautiful masterpiece.
That this is not just a flower show proves the fact that the opening was only for a select company, including prince Filip and princess Mathilde of Belgium. Also Ronny Middendorp of Anthurmiddendorp was present at the opening and with the supply of his beautiful Anthurium flowers he has brought them under the attention very well.
