Bring on Britain!

The Mind’s Eye 50 Years of Photography

by Jerry Uelsmann

I hope everyone is ready for our British-themed 2013 PHS Philadelphia Flower Show, “Brilliant!” This year, we have so many new features and events that I hardly know where to begin. The biggest news is that we’ve added an extra day to the Flower Show. That means there are two complete weekends for visitors to enjoy the flowers, exhibits, shopping, and classes—a full nine days of Flower Show fun.

I’m very excited about our new Pre-Show Sneak Peek visits. From February 25 to 28, attendees can tour the Flower Show during “Setup Week,” when the show is actually being built before your eyes. There are exhibitors bringing in thousands of flowers, potted-up shrubs, and too many trees to count.

Contractors are busy constructing displays with lumber, stone work, lighting, and effects, and plumbing for fountains and waterfalls. And mulch—there’s mulch everywhere and Bobcats are delivering bucketsful to each exhibitor. It’s a thrilling time to visit the Flower Show and has long been a treasured week for exhibitors, vendors, and volunteers. Now we’re sharing it with everyone. As an extra perk, tour packages come with an extra ticket so you can visit the PHS Philadelphia Flower Show the following week to see it in full bloom.

In the following pages, you’ll also read about the new PHS Hamilton Horticourt, which will become a major focal point of the Flower Show experience. Here, you will find some of the finest greenhouse- and home-grown potted plants in the world. The caliber of horticulture in this section of the Show is simply staggering. We will also be presenting the New Plant Showcase, a spot for Flower Show visitors to check out some of hottest new plants available in nurseries this spring. You will be blown away by these impressive new offerings.

All this, plus the many special attractions you will find at the Show, from an exciting new partnership with the Royal Horticultural Society to a showstopping display of Big Ben, not to mention the British Village where you can shop for fine goods from across the pond. I also invite you to check out our new website at PHSonline.org to learn about the many events and free educational offerings at PHS Philadelphia Flower Show.

So get ready for the best of Britain at the 2013 show. You will have a “Brilliant!” time, I promise.

I also want to send a “Thank You to our Mates” for sponsoring the Show, including Premier Sponsor Subaru of America; Exclusive Sponsor Bank of America; Official Sponsors ACME Markets, Bartlett Tree Experts, Einstein Healthcare Network, EP Henry, Hershey Harrisburg Regional Visitors Bureau, Organic Gardening magazine, Pernod Ricard, SugarHouse Casino, and Tourism Ireland; Supporting Sponsor A.C.

Patrick coyle isn’t just a mixologist — he’s a man who can seriously rock a Flyers cap. But he’s not too partisan in his team pride, he says: “I’m a fan of all Philadelphia sports.” so Coyle fits right in at Kildare’s Irish Pub in Manayunk, where he’s been tending bar for three and a half years now, and where tons of sports fans congregate during playoff season to cheer—and to enjoy Kildare’s 27 beers on tap as well as an array of liquor.

Einstein Healthcare Network PHS Kids Zone highlights healthy living through crafts and games The 2013 PHS Philadelphia Flower Show offers endless opportunities for visitors of all ages. Toddlers, tweens, and young adults will have the chance to participate in crafts, story times, interactive games, and an exciting (and educational) scavenger hunt, and enjoy on-stage performances at the Flower Show, which runs March 2-10.

The Pennsylvania Horticultural Society makes it easy to bring the kids with a specially priced Family Fun Pak, which includes Flower Show tickets for two adults and two children for $70. The popular ticket package also includes a one-year membership to PHS, which grants access to numerous children’s programs and family events year-round.

Family Fun Paks are available online at www.theflowershow.com.

Kids are invited to get creative or relax in the all-new Einstein Healthcare Network PHS Kids Zone - powered by Sprout, located in Room 204B. In the PHS Kids Zone, guests will experience engaging new programming and festive décor, including oversized cardboard trees, a white picket fence, and kid-sized vegetable cutouts.

The PHS Kids Zone will focus on healthy living, and hopes to inform visitors about nature, healthy eating, and being kind to others through a series of crafts, games, and educational storytimes.

A creative corner invites children to read a book and color, while they sit back and relax on mini bean bags and kid-size tables and chairs. Sprout will host a Be Kind Game, where parents and children will explore a series of physical and mental challenges promoting health and teamwork. Back by popular demand, the PHS Plant One Million mural will be located in the PHS Kids Zone. Visitors will get to decorate a paper leaf and add it to the huge tree, taking the tree from bare to full and lush by week’s end.

Special performance by beloved Sprout characters will take place on the Sprout Stage, including crowd-favorite Chica the Chicken, who will make an appearance on opening day, Saturday, March 2.

Also at the PHS Kids Zone, Einstein Healthcare Network will host an exciting Flower Show scavenger hunt. Tweens and young adults looking for a Flower Show adventure will follow a series of instructions that will lead them around the show floor and beyond.

A special Mums Lounge will also be located inside the Einstein PHS Kids Zone. Presented

by Einstein Healthcare Network, the lounge will be a dedicated area for nursing mothers, or those who need some quiet time and comfortable seating with their little ones.

Professionals from Einstein Healthcare Network will also be available throughout the week to provide mothers with information about breastfeeding, breast health, and the latest technology in preventive care.

Sunday, March 10, is Family Day at the Flower Show, and will include a full schedule of happenings to delight children of all ages. Sprout will host a Sprout Snack afternoon tea (advance online tickets required). Head wizard Dumbledore will make a special appearance with the Berenstain Bears. Sprout Snack and other Family Day information is available at www.theflowershow.com To learn more about family crafts and activities at the show and year-round, be sure to check out the PHS Family Friendly board on Pinterest! http://pinterest.com/pahortsociety/family-friendly-fun/

New “Make & Take Room” Celebrates the DIY Spirit Flower Show visitors become budding designers at new attraction Visitors to the 2013 PHS Philadelphia Flower Show are invited to show off their own creativity in the new Make & Take Room, sponsored by A.C. Moore, the perfect place to get crafty. Why let the show exhibitors have all the fun? In the Make & Take Room, everyone can design, assemble, and take home a “Brilliant!” piece of handiwork.

Show guests can make a fabulous “fascinator” – an elegant floral headpiece – to rival those seen at the royal wedding. For inspiration, the PHS social media team has assembled a Pinterest board on fascinators, including images of extraordinary chapeaus worn by celebrities such as Lady Gaga and Sarah Jessica Parker. Those looking for something more low-key can construct a fashionable floral wristlet with which to practice the perfect royal wave.

T ha n k YOu T O Our M aT e S

The Make & Take Room is fun for kids, too. Younger guests are encouraged to create a magic wand inspired by a certain boy wizard from the UK. All supplies will be provided, and on-site experts will be available to help as needed. Once the masterpieces are made, guests should confidently show off their floral creations around the show and keep an eye out for the PHS roving photographers. Select creations will be shared and celebrated on the Flower Show Facebook page.

The Make & Take Room is located in Room 201C at the Pennsylvania Convention Center and will be open on PHS Members’ Preview, March 1, from noon to 3 p.m.; March 2 to 9, 11 a.m. to 7 p.m.; and March 10, 11 a.m. to 4 p.m. Participation costs $10 per person (in addition to standard show ticket). Make & Take tickets are available now and can be purchased online at theflowershow.com.
