Your guide to the Philadelphia Flower Show - Allentown Morning Call
Thursday, March 10, 2016The centerpiece of the show is Big Timber Lodge, a wood and stone building decorated with immersive panoramas of the great American landscape, Native American-inspired art reminiscent of the expansive lodges at national parks such as Yosemite, floral totems, a 12-foot waterfall, giant redwoods and life-size American buffalo and grizzly bear sculptures by Emily White. Visitors will be welcomed by National Park Service rangers. The exhibit employs multimedia to bring to life the sights and sounds of the parks.People can follow three trails to explore other exhibits. Hunter Hayes Landscape Design of Ardmore, for example, is creating a large display honoring Valley Forge National Historical Park, and Stoney Bank Nurseries in Glen Mills will show off an exhibit inspired by Yellowstone. Subaru, a premier sponsor of the Flower Show, is in charge of the Yosemite site.Visitors "will see a landscape created that captures the spirit, the essence of that park," Jaffe says.In the "Find Your Park Pavilion," you can meet park rangers from around the country in person and by webcast.New this year is the Railway Garden, a model railroad display of Bachmann Trains, which will chug around tracks laced through miniaturized American landscapes, including the iconic Mount Rushmore ($5).What would gardens be without butterflies? Visitors can interact with more than 1,000 butterflies at the "Butterflies Live!" exhibit, which has become a favorite stop for families ($3). Twenty species of the colorful critters will be in the exhibit room and patrons can hold a Q-Tip with nectar to attract the butterflies for a closer look.Those looking to create their own floral art can visit the Make & Take Room and construct a headpiece modeled after Mount Rushmore. Use seeds and plants to build "crafty critters" — animals you would find in national parks. Each of those projects costs $10. Or make your own terrarium for $20.For those who love the flowers but can't stomach the crowds, there are morning tours at 8 a.m. March 7-11 in which a guide will take 10-15 people through the show before it opens to the public. That tour is $85 or $105, with flower show admission. Reservations are recommended.There are also early-morning tours for photographers, lead by nationally known photographers, for $125, including show admission.The show includ... http://www.mcall.com/features/mc-philadelphia-flower-show-20160302-story.html

Some will be time-lapse videos that show a full day in the wilderness. As guests immerse themselves in the video, music and the sounds of birds will play, scents from woodland flowers and plants will drift through and friendly National Park Service Rangers will be on hand (just look for the flat-brimmed hat).It's all set up by PHS to transport visitors from the Convention Center corridor into the great American landscape. "Explore America" lets guests do just that, through meticulously designed exhibits based on national parks ranging from Valley Forge to Death Valley."We want visitors to see this show and [be inspired] to go visit the real park," PHS President Matt Rader stated during a media preview on March 3.Yellowstone National ParkThom Carroll/PhillyVoiceTwo exhibits at the 2016 PHS Philadelphia Flower Show “Yellowstone - After the Fire‘‘ and “Charred!

Flowers and Home Décor on Nucleus Avenue - Flathead Beacon
Wednesday, December 02, 2020Within two weeks of her move to the East Coast, her mother was diagnosed with stage four stomach cancer. Kavanagh and her husband returned home to Montana following her mother’s death in 2019, and she lost her father shortly after. In the wake of her parents’ deaths, she switched gears and opened Rose Petal Floral and Supplies in Cut Bank, her husband’s hometown. “I lost both of my parents within a year of each other and just felt like I always wanted to start my own business,” she said. “I helped other people bring their businesses to communities with marketing and I felt like if I was going to do it, now is the time.” In September, Kavanagh purchased the former Glacier Wallflowers business in Columbia Falls and opened the second Rose Petal location in the former Yoga Hive on Nucleus Avenue. Now with locations on the east and west sides of Glacier National Park, she’s featuring local retailers and florists as well as exotic plants that wouldn’t normally be found in rural areas. “Our goal is always to bring things to communities like Columbia Falls and Cut Bank that have more of an urban feel to them — brands you wouldn’t normally see in Montana — and then we try to do the same thing with our flowers,” K... https://flatheadbeacon.com/2020/12/02/flowers-home-decor-nucleus-avenue/
