Yes I'll be going. I went last year and loved it. I got some great ideas for my garden. I can only go on Sat. Can't wait!!

I am going for the first time ... really looking forward to it. Are there any suggestions or information for a newbie? Like parking issues, what not to miss, can you take photos, etc.?

Yo, all! Where is it? When is it? Is there a site I can visit for more info?

It's at the Alliant Center in Madison. 10, 11, and 12 February. Link below.

Here is a link that might be useful: WPT Garden Expo

Thanks for the info, Martin. I sure wish there was something closer by here. I understand they're building botanical gardens in Wausau. Sure hope that rumor is true :)

Elvis, you should try & go if you can. I've gone 2 years and enjoy the demonstrations/lectures most.
Can't go this year.

Hey! Maybe next year - as this forum continues and we get to know each other a bunch of us could arrange to meet each other at the WPT show! How'z that sound?

I'm going. I love it. Hoping to go 2 days this year. I could spend a whole day in the exibit hall, but then you miss all the great speakers. Hey Linda, Is that you neighbor? I get these garden web names mixed up sometimes. If it is I'll answer your e-mail tomorrow since I have permission to type now. Maybe we could ride together.

I've gone for the past few years, and was a bit disappointed last year. Not many plants to buy, although I did get some oxalis and a few primrose. (A couple of years ago, I got tons of bare root ferns). I thought the seeds offered were expensive, and I'm not interested in the many extensive landscaping services.

That said, I'm sure to go again this year.

Make sure you attend the presentation on container gardening. It will be great. (shameless self promotion).

Newgars-

I plan on attending the one on Sunday at 1 PM - is that you?

Hi newgars,
So funny you should say that. I was talking to a friend yesterday who highly recomended your talk. She said you are whitty and have a lot of great information too. I'll be there.

DH did not want to go, but we are meeting a potential buyer for our truck in Madison on Sat, so we are going! Funny how I planned it that way, huh?!!
