International Bouquet Competition: Monaco

The Garden Club has been organising this competition since 1968, and the event is still as successful as ever. The flower compositions were split into 9 categories: “Monochrome”, “Wall miniature”, “Peonies”, “Zodiac signs”, “Birthday table decoration”, “Balcony Garden (a suspended composition)”, “Ikebana”, “Garden Roses”, “Candelabra or candlesticks. The competition was mostly made up of amateur participants, as the professionals only took part in the “Monochrome” category. All the compositions were made by the participants on the spot, without any assistance. Although they were able to pick any type of flower, most of them chose roses. This was highly symbolic as Princess Grace is known to have adored these flowers. In fact, her wedding gift was the “Princess de Monaco” rose from the flower house of Mejean.                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                Technical details
