Invitation: 9th European Art Of Garden Show, Fehérvárcsurgó Hungary
"Dear Friends,<br> I wish to draw your attention to a very special Hungarian Springtime event, the Garden Show at Károlyi Kastély in Fehérvárcsurgó (about 10 k. west of Székesfehérvár) beginning on Friday, May 31st through Sunday, June 2nd.. Count Georges and Countess Angelica Károlyi host a weekend of floricultural delight, informative conferences and educational workshops on such topics as eatable flower gastronomy and the extraction of perfume essences, at their famous restored kastély (stately country home) that is surrounded by a 40 acre park.

Travel to the Károlyi Kastély is easy and convenient, by car or through regular and very frequent train service to Székesfehérvár or Mór from where a free shuttle service is available 4 times a day.

Below is a short description of the exhibits, events, conferences and workshops, all dealing with plants, flowers, beautiful gardens and botanical art.

If you choose to visit on any of the three days of the Garden Show, it will certainly be rewarding experience and a very pleasant and relaxing day.

Yours sincerely,
Christopher Daniels"
