RE: 2008 Philadelphia Flower Show

Hi Patsi, I went last night. Didn't seem too crowded. I thought it was enjoyable, but not awe inspiring. Some displays were too glitzy for my taste, but they were the ones that took Jazz it Up to mean Mardi Gras. Seems to be more vendors than last year, but I could be mistaken. Saw a lot of hellibores, same as last year. I find it slightly annoying to view blooming plants together that would never bloom at the same time in nature. Did you get to go yet? Leslie

Hi Patsi, I went on Sunday, the first day. It was my first time. What a great experience!

Can't make it this year.
But did in past years.

I found it annoying also that their garden displays were unachievable
with spring/summer/fall/winter flowers all blooming at once.
Wish they would give realistic garden ideas...even if they had to use videos.
But I guess their there to impress and sell.

I do have to say it's a uplifting and pretty sight durning these last winter days.
