The logo for the Taipei International Flora Expo looks like five dancing flower petals. Each petal flows with a pattem of moving lines, representing the joy and harmony of human celebrations and shared values. Each of the five logo colors -- blue, green, red, orange and purple - represents a different continent. The bright colors also hint at the cheerful atmosphere that will characterize the expo.
