    We've start the tour with a visit in Flower Farm plantation, suggestive for people who love nature and taking lots of photos, the farm monitor will present the stages of cultivation of each species and free time to take photos on the Flower Field and buy some souvenirs or flowers at the Farm Market. Flowers we visited: 1) Cut Gerberas: Gerberas are flowers grown in greenhouses (protected cultivation system). They stay in flower all year round, they are flower beds by colors, beautiful scenery for photos. 2) Chrysanthemums / Daisies: Known as field flowers, but which are also cultivated in the greenhouse system all year round, the beds always have flowery layers, they are taller flowers and grow closer together, giving a feeling of a flowery carpet. 3) Anthuriums/Cactus: flowers grown in the greenhouse system, planted in pots with very vibrant colors. IMPORTANT: Flowers have their seasonality, we always visit the most flowery crops.
