« Wordless Wednesday: Baltimore team at the Philadelphia Flower Show | Main | Maryland Home & Garden Show: The winners! »

If you can't get enough of the Philadelphia Flower Show...

Philadephia Flower ShowIf you are like me and would like to throw down a sleeping bag and spend the week at the Philadelphia International Flower Show, an afternoon among the display gardens doesn't get it done.

Those of you who are going - and the poor souls who are not -- can follow the blog reports of Philadelphia Inquirer garden writer Ginny Smith on Kiss the Earth.

Ginny has been writing fresh tidbits every day since before the show even opened, so check on some of her earlier pieces.

She is a veteran garden writer and a veteran of the show. Her inside information is terrific.

Ginny has not only been blogging about the behind-the-scenes action at the show, including the complex construction of some of the bigger displays, but she has been giving us the story behind vendors at the Marketplace and her finds among the natives the show is recommending.

Even when it isn't garden show season, Ginny's blog is a terrific sourse of information, insight and garden people news.

About Susan Reimer
Susan Reimer has spent 16 years writing about raising kids - among other topics - in her column for The Baltimore Sun. And every time son Joseph or daughter Jessie passed another milestone - driver's license, college, wedding or a move to a new military duty station - she has planted another garden. Now she will be writing about those gardens - and yours - here on Garden Variety.

Susan isn't an expert gardener, but she wasn't an expert mother, either. Both - the kids and the gardens - seem to be doing well in spite of her.

She lives in Annapolis with her husband, Gary Mihoces, who loves to cut his grass but has noticed that there seems to be less of it every time the kids pass another milestone.
