Each spring in March and April, Orman Botanical Garden puts on a massive flower and garden show. Vendors, nurseries, florists, and gardeners from all over Greater Cairo to sell their flowers, plants, trees, and garden accessories. It was an amazing place to walk around, take photos, and enjoy all the flowers. I don’t have much outdoor space of my own, so I didn’t make any purchases but it was fun seeing it all.
