What You Missed at the 2021 Philadelphia Flower Show

PHS Philadelphia Flower Show

This year the PHS Philadelphia Flower Show, the country's biggest floral display, was held outdoors for the first time in its 193-year history, allowing artists to transform 15 acres into a living artwork of flowering plants.

Renowned floral artist Jeff Leatham's usual canvas are Four Seasons Hotels but he was thrilled to incorporate the landscape and living beauty of Franklin D. Roosevelt Park into his work, Habitat (pictured here), which headlined the show. The work recreates the expansive energy and movement of overgrown vines to reflect life exploding from previous confines, as we collectively shake off the chains that have constrained us during the past year.

Below check out some of the other fabulous designs.
