In the south area of the Floriade 2002 park visitors will be able to see large plantings of Viola ‘Fancy’® and ‘Crescendo’® primroses in the spring. From June onwards tuberous Begonia ‘Super Olympia’® will demonstrate its high uniformity within the series. Look for the colour contrast provided by a number of other Begonia varieties: bronze-leaved ‘Coctail’® and the fully doubly ‘Charisma’® series. Then the bright orange, pink and scarlet varieties of tuberous Begonia ‘Ornament’® suitable for garden landscaping. Near the North entry to the Park, a large assortment of annual varieties from the benary stable can be seen including the Petunia ‘Wave’ series. The Floriade 2002 6^th April to 25^th October merits a visit for this and many other reasons.
