Promising even more color and innovation by garden creators, the Northwest Flower and Garden Show is set for February 23-27, 2011 with a big line-up of spectacular display gardens, internationally-known speakers, over 350 exhibitors and activities for the entire family at the Washington State Convention Center in downtown Seattle.

"Once Upon A Time-Spectacular Gardens With Stories To Tell" is the theme of the 2011 show, with top garden creators adopting noteworthy works of literature and weaving story elements into their spectacular full-scale gardens. This year's show will feature more blooming flowers than ever before-the result of a new "forced blooming" program developed by the show with Windmill Gardens of Sumner, WA.

The Washington State Convention Center is located at 7th and Pike, Seattle, WA 98101.  See map.

Hours for the show: Wednesday - Saturday (February 23-26)--9 a.m. to 8 p.m.
