Philadelphia Flower Show Continues Through The Weekend


The Philadelphia Flower Show is in full swing.

This year’s show celebrates the centennial of National Park Service, including displays designed to transport visitors to national parks like Valley Forge, Shenandoah, Yellowstone, Yosemite and more iconic locations.

“The Pennsylvania Horticultural Society (PHS) is honored that the Philadelphia Flower Show has been chosen by the National Park Service as a centennial event marking this amazing milestone,” Sam Lemheney, PHS Chief of Shows & Events, said.

The show, held at the Pennsylvania Convention Center in Center City, Philadelphia, highlights the nation’s parks through breathtaking displays. From a beach to the boiling springs of Yellowstone, the Philadelphia Flower Show’s displays are bound to impress.

The show will continue through Sunday.
