Macy’s Flower Show

Last week I had a nice springy day out at the Macy’s Flower Show in downtown Minneapolis with my friend, Kristen.  Kristen and I go all the way back to college and she also was my maid of honor.  We occasionally get together for lunch and shopping.  Every year the Macy’s 8th floor get’s decorated to the brim with flowers for the spring show.  Kristen has gone many years.  But, this was my first.

Mixing in some ferns like this, in the ground, is a great idea.

There were surprises everywhere.  And, even a little screened house with birds.

These pots resting on swings were lovely.

And, a water feature-every good garden has a water feature.  I have yet to put one in mine..but I love the idea.

I’ve had my eye’s on a weeping larch tree for years.  They’re strange.  They’re soft.  I’ll let you know if this year is the year I get one.

What a great idea-a path of small logs.
