Floral Clock

35,000 Flowers
The annual planting of the Floral Clock has been completed. Each year 35,000 flowers and plants are densely packed into the intricate shape of a working clock; even the rotating clock hands consist of flowers. The clock is located in the city center in Princes Street Gardens.

The floral clock was first created in 1903; it's the oldest of its kind in the world. It used to be operated mechanically and had to be wound daily. Each year it designed in honor of various organizations and individuals.
