The flower show is made up of three halls: the first is that of landscape and floral displays; the second is for education and individual displays; the third is for the marketplace. Sybil and I made our way to all three.
The Hall of Education and Individual Displays was where we went to find experts who could tell Sybil what to do with her begonia. We talked to several people. Advice ranged from "you may be watering it too much--or maybe not enough" to questions about its placement in the house. Our "take-away" was to try something and pay attention to what happens!
In this second part of the show, judges were awarding ribbons for plants, flower arrangements, displays in window boxes, balconies and front porch gardens and more. (The front porch gardens made me wish I had a front porch!)
The whole of the flower show is a celebration of horticultural excellence--and what a celebration it is!
