un nuevo y florido paraíso

Kingdom come come from the Lord's Prayer. It's exact translation is "venga su reino" but that's not what we're dealing with here. It's refering to the kingdom of God or Paradise. Flowery can mean ornate but since they are talking about Madagascar I assume they mean literaly full of flowers. So this is my suggestion.

un nuevo paraíso enguirnaldado

Si quieres tomarte una licencia poética, también puedes utilizar "enguirnaldado" (que significa "decorado con guirnaldas").
