If the show is too good for topiary it's too good for lowbrow people like myself who love their whimsy.MrBrownThumbhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11326733084344581944noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-14573299.post-44084040125539974412012-04-10T20:01:14.782-05:002012-04-10T20:01:14.782-05:00Glad you liked the pics Garden Broad.Glad you liked the pics Garden Broad.MrBrownThumbhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11326733084344581944noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-14573299.post-85949526190165389382012-04-10T20:00:47.319-05:002012-04-10T20:00:47.319-05:00I remember that ;0)I remember that ;0)MrBrownThumbhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11326733084344581944noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-14573299.post-34693255107398114832012-04-10T19:59:47.273-05:002012-04-10T19:59:47.273-05:00Too bad you don't have a show like this at you...Too bad you don't have a show like this at your local Macy's.

Since we didn't have a meetup this year at the Chicago Flower & Garden Show this year we should try to get all the local garden bloggers together one Saturday or Sunday before Macy's flower show ends.MrBrownThumbhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11326733084344581944noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-14573299.post-52262202236664468432012-03-23T17:24:36.287-05:002012-03-23T17:24:36.287-05:00This year it is a great show.

The bromeliads look like fireworks! And I love that most of the plants will go to GPC afterwords. This kind of event goes a long way towards helping Chicago forgive Macy's for, well, existing, on State St. Good job, Macy's!
