The Wilanów Palace, together with its garden, is one of the most beautiful places of interest in Poland. The Baroque palace and the meticulously designed surrounding gardens were built for King John III Sobieski (1629-1696) and are filled with Polish as well as European culture. The 45 hectares of Wilanów Park comprise gardens in several styles: a two-level Baroque garden, a neo-Renaissance rose garden, an English landscape park and an English-Chinese landscape park. The Park has a unique microclimate thanks to its natural lake and stream and its man-made pond dating back to King John III’s days.
The trees grown in the Park are mostly local species, such as lime trees (Tilia cordata), maples (Acer platanoides) and ironwood (Carpinus betulus) to name a few. Exotic tree species include ginkgo (Ginkgo biloba), southern catalpas (Catalpa bignonioides) and katsura trees (Cercidiphyllum japonicum). Many of the trees are valuable specimens, with 28 officially listed in the Register of Natural Heritage.

Floriculture Today is first and only magazine on floriculture, landscape, gardening and greenhouse technology. Floriculture Today was launched way back in 1996 when Indian floriculture industry was in its infancy. The magazine connected flower growers from across India and brought them to one common communication platform. Ever since, the magazine has been the de-facto national media for the rainbow industry called Commercial Floriculture and Professional Nurseries.
The magazine very soon developed into best promotion media platform for flower growers to connect with market. Greenhouse suppliers, planting material suppliers, irrigation system and fertilizer suppliers soon joined Floriculture Today and the magazine became a reference point for anyone interested in commercial cultivation of any high value crop.
