Botanicals for Ghent

The Australian artist George Rose has brought her iconic flowers and colourful style to our streets.
In this neighbourhood once stood the greenhouses of Louis Van Houtte, a horticulturist and former Mayor of this district. He was known for collecting exotic plants and sent researchers to fill the greenhouses with plants from far beyond Belgium.
His work brought flora to Gentbrugge and now George brings this atmosphere back to our walls!
