If snow got you down, head for the Philadelphia Flower Show

The PHS Philadelphia Flower Show

February 27-March 8. 2015

The PHS Philadelphia Flower Show is the nation’s largest and longest-running flower show, which blooms every March at the Pennsylvania Convention Center. The show features the world’s premier landscape designers and florists, who turn 10 acres of the Convention Center into a fantasy of beautiful plants and cutting-edge designs. In addition to the major garden displays, the Flower Show hosts world-renowned competitions in horticulture and artistic floral arranging, gardening presentations and demonstrations, special events, a mammoth indoor Marketplace, and a Flower Show Week celebration throughout the Philadelphia region.

The Premier Sponsor of the 2015 Flower Show is Subaru, and the Exclusive Sponsor is Bank of America. Official Sponsors include Acme, Bartlett Tree Experts, Crestor, EP Henry, Green Mountain Energy and Tourism Ireland.
Proceeds from the Flower Show benefit the year-round programs of PHS, which is celebrating its 187th year of gardening, greening and learning. PHS initiatives include the PHS City Harvest program, which creates green jobs and supports a network of community gardens that raise fresh produce for more than 1,200 families in need each week during the growing season; the Philadelphia LandCare program, which “cleans and greens” and maintains more than 10 million square feet of vacant land in the city; and Plant One Million, a tri-state, 13-county campaign whose goal is to plant one million,trees in the region by 2020.
