The Netherlands, with its long coastline, is the theme for Task 3 at World Cup Floral Art 2025 in The Hague. 23 different ideas, 23 different visions, 23 skilled and extremely talented floral designers show their best and give us 23 unique designs.
VBW, the Florist Association in Holland, and Florint organize this Competition at the World Forum, The Hague.
Task 3 World Cup Floral Art - Netherlands - Land of Water... (Nederland Waterland)
For the third task, designers were given 90 minutes. Bringing the feeling of water and the beach was part of the rules. Designers could bring their own framework, but a constructed prop was provided. 50 % of all the botanical materials needed to be placed into Oasis Bio Floral Foam. The work must last 4 days. It can not exceed 47 inches x 47 inches wide and 74 inches tall. The technique they choose is the designer's choice.
The organizers provided all the botanical materials as a surprise package, and after completion, the design had to be moved for the judges to judge without knowing who made the design. The flowers for this design were sponsored by Marginpar.
