Then, from 2000 to 2010, the arrangement was like a picture scroll made of various types of flowers, with one scroll on the eastern side of the square and another on the western side.

Since 2011, the design has been a huge, basket-shaped flower arrangement, which has proved popular with the public.

Before 1990, it was not possible to use a large range of colors in the flower arrangements because the design was limited by the types of flowers available. But as the economy has grown and technology has improved, a bigger range of flowers-both domestically developed and imported-can be used.
