Floral Clock 2016

This is the beautiful floral clock which is created every year since 1903 in Princes Street Gardens, Edinburgh.  It takes many man-hours to complete and can contain over 40,000 plants.  Each year has a different theme - this year it is architecture.  The clock itself is made using the mechanism of a redundant turret clock.  In 1905, a cuckoo was added - which you can maybe see in the birdhouse next to the display.  It pops out every hour.  The Floral Clock won a Gold Medal in its' centenary year at the Chelsea Flower Show.
