Look! It’s a bulb… it’s a plant… it’s the “Superheroes of the Garden” at the Boston Flower & Garden Show!


The Boston Flower & Garden Show will once again transform the Seaport World Trade Center into New England’s largest greenhouse from March 22-26, 2017 at the Seaport World Trade Center in Boston. This year’s theme, “Superheroes of the Garden," will celebrate the most powerful forces of Gardening Good ever assembled.


The extravagant five-day event features over 15 garden displays created by professional landscape designers and nurseries that incorporate plants, materials and techniques, all representing this year's theme.


These intrepid landscapers honor the horticultural crusaders’ innovative tools, concepts and plants to empower us all in the Battle for Garden Supremacy. Marvel at their powers and abilities!
