As you can see the theme of the Flower Show this year was Hawaii.
I was really looking forward to lots of Brightly colored flowers and palm trees. I defiantly got the palm trees, but the whole show was lacking very much in the Flower department. In general there just weren't as many flowers as usual. Maybe it was too difficult to try to keep tropical plants alive for an indoor show, but maybe some not so tropical (but brightly colored flowers) would have made it feel more like Hawaii. Don't get me wrong I still thoroughly enjoyed my self! The miniatures and store fronts were excellent this year, as well as the community garden club display. It reminded me of what an Anthropologie garden would look like!The cooking demonstration was very good this year. It was on Organic cooking and the chef was from Italy. Her voice with the accent was so relaxing!She made risotto with saffron and asparagus, and Penne pasta with spring veggies. It smelled great!
I don't have any pictures of what we did after that but we ended up at Starbucks for a coffee and then to West Elm to check out their new Spring line. It was so inspiring, it would be soo neat to have a job there setting up the displays!
Well below are some pictures that Mom and I took on our short trip to Hawaii via Philly.
Enjoy!
