  • Visitors to the Kaas Plateau need to be aware of the natural and unpredictable conditions that can affect the flower bloom. Weather conditions, including rain, can have a significant impact on the timing and intensity of the bloom. While the Kaas committee has identified the best and ideal times to visit based on historical patterns, it’s crucial to understand that nature operates on its own schedule.
  • Due to the natural and uncontrollable nature of flower blooms, it’s understandable that there might not be any guarantees regarding the bloom conditions. Therefore, visitors should be prepared for the possibility of variations in flower bloom, and this note helps manage expectations.
