In Drechtsteden, the five participating municipalities failed to make a positive decision. In Drechtsteden, the concerns of high costs, environmental impact and disruption of Sunday rest were reasons against hosting the festival. The board of the Dutch Horticultural Council announced on December 8, 2004 that the plan of the only remaining candidate, Venlo, met the criteria. The official preview event, named "Floriade Invites", hosted 22,000 visitors on June 20, 2010. The Floriade, which was designed by landscape architect John Boon, made prominent use of Cradle-to-cradle design.〔http://www.tuinenlandschap.nl/pdf/4a2cf9cd2ede12dfae7ceb0ba0cbe444.pdf〕 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Floriade 2012」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
