Daily News | Five things not to miss and one to skip at the Philadelphia Flower Show
Tamil Carr walks into the entrance of the Philadelphia Flower Show at the Pennsylvania Convention Center Friday.Despite the Pennsylvania Horticultural Society’s best attempts to explain the theme of this year’s Philadelphia Flower Show — “The Garden Electric” — prior to its opening this weekend, visitors at a members and media preview Friday still had trouble wrapping their heads around the concept.
Due to COVID-19, the show was held outside at FDR Park in June for the last two years, but this year it’s back at the Convention Center — and the crowds and lines are back with it. Walking through this exhibit is supposed to make you feel the “electric energy and magical excitement” of being a kid in a candy store. And it succeeds. Even the multicolored, pastel packing peanuts that fill the floors of this display look good enough to eat — and to jump in., home to the Indianapolis Museum of Art and 152 acres of nature and gardens, makes its debut at the show with an exhibit called “Art & Nature Illuminated.
“We wanted to bring Indianapolis to Philly, so to be here and see this is a dream come true,” she said. “This is an exceptional experience. Every sense gets touched.”The giant brain with purple electrical synapses firing throughout it and a large tree growing from the top by Jennifer Designs of Mantua Township is a mind-blowing experience.
Be sure to look for the small details — like two Camel cigarettes burning a hole in a bed at a Madrid apartment - and try to formulate your own story, before reading the labels to see what inspired the designers.Also exhibiting at the show for the first time this year is the city of Chengdu, the capital of China’s Sichuan province.
