The month-long Autumn Flower edition of the International Flower Expo 2024 concluded on Sunday in Cairo.

"I gained experience over 25 years, dealing with all types of plants, starting with cuttings and seeds. My experience grew with time and I started participating in the flower exhibition. I am one of the exhibitors, exhibiting a group of cacti, which is a specialty that I am passionate about and love. I also exhibited some medicinal and aromatic plants such as mint, basil, thyme, and jasmine. As a designer and sculptor, I wanted to use tree branches, wood, and some pieces of rock to make some products that serve plants and agriculture."

The expo has a history of over 90 years. It is held twice a year. The Spring Flower edition occurs in May.
