Aloha! 2012 Philadelphia Flower Show


If it's February it means people are ready for a change in the seasons.  The promise of spring is close at hand but not close enough.  It hasn't been a terribly cold or snowy winter but the blahs have set in and it's time to get out and see some color.

If you're experiencing cabin fever then sign up for Sibley Hospital's day trip to The Philadelphia Flower Show, the world's largest indoor flower show, on Wednesday, March 7.  The 2012 Philadelphia International Flower Show theme is the exotic "Islands of Aloha."

Visitors will be able to enter through a giant wave of orchids and towering waterfalls and also have a chance to participate in a traditional Hawaiian luau, featuring hula dancing, music and chants.  Expert gardeners will also be giving talks and offering advice about gardening basics and design.
