This year features a redesigned show floor, displays for small spaces, interactive classes and presentations led by industry professionals. It’s a great place to find inspiration for your garden. There’s even a kid’s activity garden to teach the little ones to take care of the garden. Visit www.chicagoflower.com for more information and details.
