“Give the Flowers a New Home!” Jockey Club Flower Re-planting Scheme

 

In view of the latest developments, Hong Kong Flower Show 2020 (including “Give the Flowers a New Home!” Jockey Club Flower Re-planting Scheme) had been cancelled in order to reduce social contacts and the risk of the spread of the novel coronavirus in the community.

Every year after the Hong Kong Flower Show, suitable flowers remaining in the showground are sent to LCSD parks for replanting.  The “Give the Flowers a New Home!” Jockey Club Flower Replanting Scheme was introduced in 2014 to encourage replanting in the community and raise public environmental awareness.  It returns this year, with the continuous support of Major Sponsor, The Hong Kong Jockey Club Charities Trust, applications are being invited from schools, environmental groups and non-governmental organisations.

Upon successful application, organisations and schools may receive potted plants by either of the following ways after the Show closes:

I.

Those organisations and schools whose representatives fail to arrive at the showground during the collection period are deemed to have withdrawn from the Scheme.

II.

Free delivery Each organisation and school may have not more than 30 potted plants (of pot diameter 15 cm) delivered to it free of charge, with the type and number of plants assigned by the organiser depending on the plants available in the showground.
