Philadelphia Flower Show

Was on the website and it said best viewing times after 4:00. I would think the least crowded times would be during the day.Anybody been there before and how packed does it get?

Yes, I've gone and it does get pretty crowded. There are lots of groups of people, tour buses and such. They are making a day of it so by dinnertime they are leaving. There is so much floor to cover that good shoes are a must. It is inspiring, uplifting and a good way to get motivated for spring work.

Just got back from the show today. Arrived around 12 noon and it was pretty crowded, but not as rediculous as it has been. A few lines here and there to get into some of the walk in displays, but not more than a few minutes.

I've gone on Sunday afternoons for the past 4 years now and never have had too many problems.

The show was pretty good. The EP henry display was one of the best, I really like their new line of fake natural blue stone.

I hate to say it, but some of the stuff gets a little bit tiresome. I like flowers, but after seeing a few dozen flower arrangements, they tend to all look the same. Either way, I enjoy the show and just like to see what others are doing. If you are a florist, you will be in heaven!
