The Boston Flower & Garden Show will once again transform the Seaport World Trade Center into New England’s largest greenhouse from March 14-18, 2018.
Colorful life-sized gardens and unique floral designs will “Savor Spring!” – this year’s Show theme – by incorporating elements of the popular food gardening trend. Included will be organics, small-space gardens, homesteading hobbies, edibles-as-ornamentals and family-friendly spaces for outdoor dining and entertaining.
“Enjoy the first taste of spring at the Show. Gather all of the recipes and ingredients you’ll need for a year of successful gardening,” said Carolyn Weston, Boston Flower & Garden Show Director.
