COMMUNITY groups and organisations are invited to apply now to participate in the Floriade Community program to be provided with spring bulbs and annuals to plant and maintain in their local area.​

Locations must be visible to a large number of Canberrans and cover an area at least 10sqm in total with a planting density of 40 bulbs per sqm​. This can include garden beds, pots or wheelbarrows at local shops, churches or community centres.​

In 2022, Floriade Community distributed 300,000 bulbs and annuals to more than 100 community groups throughout Canberra.

The deadline for Floriade Community applications is April 2. Apply at floriadeaustralia.com
