Pimps at the Philly Flower Show

Just recovering from the Garden Writers meeting at the Philadelphia Flower Show and packing up now for our own Washington Gardener trip to the show tomorrow.

Thought I'd take a few minutes and share a couple pics. The first one is of a few GWA elected leaders telling us how they are going to pimp us garden writers out for quick cash to pay for the organization's overdue web site overhaul. Actually, this crew just got a little too "in character" being fresh back from their recent GWA Board meeting in New Orleans. In this case, what happens on Bourbon Street, did not stay there :-).

New Orleans is also the theme of the Philly Flower Show and they did it well. Spanish moss, lots of jazz, moody lighting, and colorful, heady-scented tropicals.

Here is a picture of one of the many dreamy landscapes. This one of a fresh spring day in Ireland. A little throwback to last year's show theme. I'll share more pics upon my return.
