Now in its 28th year, the Flower Festival promises to offer a serene escape from the city's fast-paced life. Under the guidance of BMC Commissioner and Administrator Bhushan Gagrani, and Additional Municipal Corporation Commissioner (Eastern Suburbs) Dr. Amit Saini, the festival will showcase approximately 5,000 plants, including various species of flowers, fruit trees, and medicinal plants. Deputy Commissioner (Parks) Chanda Jadhav and Parks Superintendent Jitendra Pardeshi are overseeing the arrangements.
Previous editions of the festival have attracted notable visitors such as ambassadors from Japan, Malaysia, Canada, and Mauritius, as well as distinguished figures like Additional Chief Justice Manjusha Deshpande, actors Ranjit and Pawan Malhotra, and senior cricketer Dilip Vengsarkar.
In addition to the floral displays, the festival will feature stalls selling gardening supplies and fertilizers, catering to both citizens and environmental enthusiasts.
The BMC is inviting all Mumbaikars to enjoy this three-day floral extravaganza, which aims to provide a peaceful retreat amidst nature’s beauty.
