  • Beautiful slide show. It leaves me curious to see how the flowers arrangements fit into the surroundings and town. I caught a glimpse of a line of people, so it must be a crowded and popular event. I'm a rose lover and grower and my niece lives near Maastricht, so I might plan a trip around this festival in the future. Thanks.
