The international participants and flower-growers who would showcase their floral cultivations in the five-day long festival includes Australia, New Zealand, Holland, US, Taiwan, Nepal and Thailand.
The International Flower Show Sikkim 2013 aims to promote the floriculture industry in Sikkim and ultimately promote the state as a main floriculture destination.
The organizers hope to pull in about 2,00,000 visitors during the 10 day mega flower show. The flower fest will end on February 27.
