A Little Bit About a Lot of Things

You would never know that spring is around the corner with the weather being cold and rainy the past two days…but it is. If you can’t wait for spring (it’s only 4 days away!) check out the Boston Flower Show to get your fix. The show opened today and will run through Sunday.

I was able to stop into the Seaport World Trade Center yesterday for a media sneak peek.

In addition to viewing beautiful flowers, the show offers lectures and demonstrations throughout the weekend.

Check out events like “Hort in a Hurry, Succulent Garden Success”, “Urban Beekeeping” with my friends from Best Bees Company, “The Growing and Harvesting of Tea”, and “The Cocktail Hour Garden: Evening Landscapes for Relaxing and Entertaining”.

Bringing your little ones? They have a children’s area at the end of the 1000 aisle. Wednesday, Thursday and Friday from 11am-12pm, and 1-2:30pm, and on the weekend, Saturday and Sunday from 12:45-4pm, they have crafts and gardening activities. On Saturday and Sunday from 12:30-4pm they have paper flower making and face painting as well!

The center of the floor will have all the landscape designs, while the perimeter will have vendors of all kinds. Check out a full list of vendors here.
