The event which showcases these many towering [flower sculptures](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/calder-gardens) is called [Epcot International](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/figment-popcorn-bucket) Flower & Garden Festival, and is presented by Disneynature. My favourite is Lady and the Tramp and her (Lady’s) flowing mane. ## Trend Insights (Trend Hunter) - Score: 0.8/10 - Popularity: 10% | Activity: 5% | Freshness: 8% - Audience gender: 50% men, 50% women - Primary generations: Millennial, Gen X - Top markets: North America, Europe ## Categories [Trend Hunter](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends) > [Art & Design](https://www.trendhunter.com/artdesign) > [Design](https://www.trendhunter.com/design) ## Key Themes ### Why This Trend Is Growing - **Garden Art Sculptures:** Creating art through shaping hedges and shrubs presents opportunities for art installations and horticultural design. - **Nature-themed Events:** Organizing exhibitions and events that center on nature, art, and Disney characters can be a valuable option for collaboration opportunities. - **Innovative Landscaping:** Integrating imaginative garden features that incorporate art and pop culture can be an element of outdoor design innovation for businesses and industries. ### Industries Being Reshaped - **Floral and Garden Industry:** Integrating popular culture into garden and landscaping design services can pique consumer interest. - **Theme Parks Industry:** Collaborating with floral and garden companies to host events, such as the Epcot Flower & Garden Festival, can provide a unique and memorable experience for theme park visitors. - **Event Planning Industry:** Incorporating natural elements, like gardening installations, into event planning can create a visually appealing environment and a unique experience for attendees. ## Related on Trend Hunter - [Dairytale Bridal Tributes](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/disney-wedding-dresses-1.md) - [Whimsical Garden Product Campaigns](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/where-the-good-things-gro.md) - [Amusement Park Fine Dining](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/la-fort-secrte.md) - [Flower-Centric Events](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/macys-flower-show.md) - [Animation-Inspired Themed Hotels](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/pixar-place-hotel.md) - [Thematic Outdoor Lights Experiences](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/tim-burton-light-trail.md) - [Nature-Inspired Artful Garden Installations](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/henderson-art-garden.md) - [Light Garden Installations](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/imaginarium360.md) - [Outdoor Floral Sculpture Installations](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/sculptures-at-kew-gardens.md)
