ONLINE VACATION

PHILADELPHIA FLOWER SHOW
PHILADELPHIA, PENNSYLVANIA, USA

3/2/14

Hi Everyone. It is finally March, and that means spring is coming soon.
Today's trip is to Philadelphia, Pennsylvania, but we are not going
there to see the normal sites. We are going to the Philadelphia
Flower Show. It is being held this year from March 1st to 9th.

It is the largest indoor flower show in the world. The flower show is a
combination of art and horticulture. The Pennsylvania Convention
Center is turned into a 10-acre living canvas of exquisite landscapes,
gardens and floral arrangements. This is the 185th year of beautiful
exhibitions.

There are different highlighted sections of the flower show to experience.
One of those is "The Butterfly Experience". Nature’s beauty takes
flight at the 2014 PHS Philadelphia Flower Show. You’ll find yourself
surrounded by more than 1,000 butterflies, including 20 different
species, during The Butterfly Experience.

"Make & Take Room" ~ Expanded for 2014, the Make & Take Room allows
visitors to design, assemble and take home their own Flower Show
project. Choose from two different DIY projects: a wearable craft
project or materials to create your own terrarium.

"LGBT Party" ~ Celebrate with an evening of cocktails and live
entertainment.

"Wedding Wednesday" ~ Brides-to-be can get wedding advice from local
experts and sample champagne during Wedding Wednesday at the Flower
Show. New this year, experience an actual wedding on the show floor
during the finale of Philadelphia Wedding’s Greatest Groom Contest.

"Girls Night Out" ~ Philadelphia Style presents the ultimate ladies’
night with a VIP party featuring exclusive shopping, food, wine and
special demonstrations.

I hope you enjoy looking at these beautiful vibrant flowers and
displays. These photos are from different years.
