Hope we see you there!
Are you looking forward to spring?
What's the first flower that appears in your garden?
I'd love to hear about it in the comments below!
Yes a sure sign of spring. Be there or be square! It may not be the best garden show but to see something blooming is worth the price of admission.
ReplyDeleteI agree! And it sure is easy to get to!
DeleteThanks for letting me know about this. I am trying to arrange my schedule so I can go! This weekend is crazy for me!
ReplyDeleteHope we see you there. You should be able to get some great ideas for the new landscaping projects you've been dreaming of!
DeleteGood to know. The Convention Center is only about 30 minutes from me. I will be there.
ReplyDeleteHope to see you! I'm looking to get ideas for some new landscaping for a friend's restaurant. And, of course, anything that I can incorporate into my own garden!
