I love home and garden shows! They offer so much hope for spring in the darkest of winter! The colors are cheerful and I get so many ideas!! I can't wait for our local one!
I would love to be there! We don't have many of these shows in the UK and so I'd be over the moon to attend! My boys have their birthdays this weekend so it's all about them!
I have a friend who is just crazy about gardening! This garden and home show sounds like a great event. I can’t believe how time flies so fast and now they are having their 57th show! Thanks for sharing!
Wow, the entire area of the convention center is massive! I bet there will be a lot of learning and information sharing in this event. If only I'm near, I will surely go. Landscape garden designing seems a subject of interest to more households.
This sounds like such a great way to spend a weekend. My Grandmother would absolutely love this because she took to gardening and says it helps her find peace and solice. She would love to explore something like this.
I've actually heard about this flower show, and I really want to attend this show! I can imagine how beautiful it will be to see all the flowers, plants, and more in person. Always fun to learn about new technologies used in gardening too.
Oooh, I've never been to a garden show, but I sure would like to! They have a couple of them down here in Orlando FL every year, but I've never gone. Must look into it.
