In accordance with the tradition of several years, the individual local government representatives of Debrecen will again distribute annual flower and balcony plant seedlings to the residents of Debrecen living in their districts in 2025. The distribution of flowers began on May 21, 2025, and is expected to last until the first days of June.
At the first location, Nagysándor-telep, the municipal representative of the city district, Diána Széles said that this is a very old tradition, as the proposal of the Fidesz faction of the general assembly to jointly make Debrecen more beautiful with the help of free flower distribution was accepted by the city government at the time in 1998. The residents of the city have been very fond of this initiative ever since, and every spring they wait for the flowers to decorate their gardens, balconies, and porches. Every autumn, the distribution of leaf collection bags is equally successful, with which the municipality helps the city to become tidier and cleaner together with the citizens.
In the next three weeks, individual municipal representatives will distribute a total of about 120 thousand flower plants in more than 40 locations in the city as part of the “Debrecen is Our Garden” movement. Interested parties can receive the plants by showing their address card.

The flower distributions take place at specified times and locations per city district or representative district. This information can be found on the municipality’s website (www.debrecen.hu) in the News section under the article entitled Flower distribution in Debrecen returns in 2025. It is worth following this continuously updated news regularly for those interested, as the flower distributions take place in outdoor locations, which may be affected by the current weather situation, which may result in changes to the dates. In addition to the local government website, it is therefore worth following the announcements of individual municipal representatives on social media.
