The Malta Hilton's gardens were in full bloom during the recent harsh winter. And now that spring is showing its pretty face again more blooms are coming through.
The Hilton also gets good help from one of its regular customers - prominent Dutch bulb grower Hans Kapiteyn sends hundreds of bulbs every year to his favourite hotel. This guarantees that when he is on holiday here later on in the year, he can admire his bulbs blooming.
This time Mr Kapiteyn has shipped over a large number of special lilium bulbs which should bloom around June and embellish the pool area at the Hilton.
Hilton Malta's Frank Horl received the bulbs from Peter Calamatta of the Garden Shop Nursery, who presented the liliums on behalf of Mr Kapiteyn.
