Horticulturist and plant enthusiasts took part in the 33rd Annual Horticultural Show (Horticulture 2009) held last July 16 – 25, 2009 at the Commonwealth Avenue part of the Quezon City Memorial Cirle in Quezon City.
Organized by the Philippine Horticultural Society in cooperation with Quezon City Government and Parks Development, the event carried the theme, “A Walk in the Park”, which aims to educate people on the uses of plants in maintaining a healthy lifestyle. The theme was also chosen to reiterate the need to have public nature parks within a congested city.
Quezon City Mayor Feliciano 'Sonny' Belmonte and National Committee on Disability Affairs (NCDA) Chairperson Rosie Lovely Romulo graced the opening ceremony. During the event, numerous seminar were conducted that tackled various topics such as bonsai culture, probiotics, monopodial orchids, growing ferns, aquatic gardening, gamma irradiation, tray and garden landscaping, flower arrangement, among others. The Memorial Circle also served as an exhibit area where plant groups and individuals showcased their ornamental plants.
