Flower power: City sets Guinness record for world’s largest bouquet

Ahmedabad: The Ahmedabad Municipal Corporation (AMC) has set a Guinness World Record for the world’s largest flower bouquet (in size) at this year’s flower show.
AMC broke the record for the largest bouquet of natural flowers held by Al Ain Municipality, United Arab Emirates.
On Jan 7, a Guinness team recognised AMC’s bouquet 10.24m high and having a diameter 10.84m, as the largest in the world.
The Al Ain Municipality had created a flower arrangement that stood seven metres tall.
The award was accepted by deputy mayor Jatin Patel at an event attended by AMC standing committee chairman Devang Dani and municipal commissioner M Thennarasan.
Last year’s Flower Show too had set a Guinness World Record, for the longest flower wall, measuring 221m. This structure surpassed the previous record of 166.15m.
This year’s Flower Show at the riverfront features over 1 million flowers from more than 50 species, including exotic varieties such as roses, lilies, and orchids. The show is segmented into six thematic zones: Growth and Development, Sustenance and Inclusivity, Sustainable Future, Culture and Heritage and Vision for the Future.
Visitors can engage with the displays through a new QR code system that provides audio guides in multiple languages, enhancing the overall experience.
