The spotlight continued to shine on The Hague as the World Cup Floral Art 2025 moved into its second challenge. From 28 to 31 August, the World Forum hosts 23 of the world’s most talented floral designers, each proudly representing their country on this global stage.
Organized by Royal VBW in collaboration with the international florists’ association Florint, the World Cup is recognized as the pinnacle of floral artistry, showcasing unmatched creativity and technical mastery from the best in the industry.
World Cup Floral Art has four main sponsors: Marginpar, Decorum, Oasis Floral Products Benelux, and Jodeco Glass.
Task 2 - Surprise Task Plant Arrangement
For the second assignment, competitors faced an exciting twist — they created a plant arrangement, but all the specifics remained a surprise until the task began.

The theme, description, requirements, size limits, techniques, and preparations were only revealed on the spot, pushing each designer’s creativity and adaptability to the limit. They had 90 minutes to bring their vision to life, with all materials supplied by the organization, ensuring a fair and level playing field for every participant.
What Was the Task About?
The designers had to imagine an Amsterdam house. They were provided with outdoor plants from Decorum. Make your Amsterdam house look gorgeous. It was quite a challenge for everybody.

Floral Fundamentals organized a whole team that took the stage during the three days. On the first day, Ahti Lyra, Max Hurtaud, and a few others created fantastic designs.

A Celebration of Creativity
Beyond Tasks 1 and 2, competitors at the World Cup have taken on three additional floral design challenges spread across the event days. Each creation was assessed by an esteemed international jury, evaluating not only creativity but also artistic vision, technical precision, innovation, and overall presentation.
The anticipation reached its peak on Saturday, August 30, when the new World Champion was announced during a spectacular theatrical finale.
