Photographic Exhibition of Cyprus Gardens

For the first time this year the gardens of our members will be
opened to the general public. Visitors will have the opportunity to
enjoy photographs from 12 gardens located in Cyprus, loaded with
succulents and more. Each garden has a unique character, as does
its owner. All the gardens have been photographed this spring. Other
than enjoying a beautiful spring photo exhibition the visitors will get
ideas that could implement in their gardens.

Nurseries from all over Cyprus will be represented again this year and
rare plants will be imported from abroad, specifically for the Exhibition. Furthermore, there will be plant cuttings and a great variety of relevant books.

will take place. All plants taking part in the Competition will be
showcased at the Exhibition Hall for the public to see. The Judge for
this year will be Mr. Rene Zahra, the Secretary of the Cactus and
Succulent Society of Malta.
