10 Giant Flower Sculptures Made From Dahlias At World’s Largest Flower Parade In The Netherlands

ADVERTISEMENT

On Sunday, September 4th, the annual ‘Corso Zundert’ Flower Parade took place in the Netherlands. Just like last year, teams of volunteers competed for the best-designed parade float made entirely out of colorful flowers.

Made from thousands of beautiful flowers, we saw 20 different floats featuring everything from mystical creatures to animals to people. This year’s winner, titled “Dangerous Transportation”, featured a beautiful sculpture of a giant orange dragon and was designed by a team called Tiggelaar.

Want to see more of these stunning flower arrangements? Check out last year’s flower artworks, which were inspired by Vincent Van Gogh.

    I know (first hand) how difficult and time consuming these floats are. Their smell is INTOXICATING and photos are nice, but nothing beats seeing the beauty in person. Thank you very much for sharing their beauty here on Panda!

    Nothing, because they wilt after a few days. The parade is on sunday, the floats are on display on monday and they get destroyed on tuesday.

    Those are really cool flower sculptures! They amazed me with the designer's imagination. My gosh, the time and talent that went in to all those floats. The people are to be commended.

    While I would love to see this parade, I would be a terrible judge at it! They are all so differently beautiful.

    So how many dahlias died (or lost their flowers) for this?
