So, for those who would like to virtually "go" to The Flower Show... We got back last night, after 2 nights and 2 days in Philly! As always, Terri and I had a grand time together. And as for the show itself...
It. Was. Spectacular!
The Flower Show entrance exhibit was an archway built like a bridge (like those in Amsterdam over the canals, although the "real" bridges probably have half as many flowers -- but they are still bedecked with blooms!). On either side were gorgeous beds of tulips, like those Terri posted. Beyond that in one direction were red and white windmills, and in the other was a remarkable "ceiling" installation involving who knows how many thousands of blooms hung on long lines, arranged in little tussy-mussy bouquets.
Please don't upload these images to the plant database... I'll take care of that, and I'd rather do it after I've had a chance to crop, resize, and do any other editing. I'm just sharing a few images I downloaded from the camera last night. :-)
First impression!
I think she shares my (and Terri's and Neal's) love of purple, don't you?
And really, who can blame her (us)?
