The 17th Annual Rhode Island Spring Flower and Garden Show will take place Thursday, February 18 through Sunday, February 21 at the Rhode Island Convention Center in Providence, Rhode Island.  For more information, or to buy tickets on line,  log on to www.flowershow.com.  This year’s theme is “Timeless Gardens”, which will take you all through decades that will remind you of forgotten sights, times, friends and family.  In full bloom, enjoy a garden atmosphere typical of the Roaring Twenties era.  Do the stroll or the twist through a 1950’s garden.

For almost two decades the Flower Show has been the beacon for early Spring fun in Rhode Island.  The Show attracts more than 30,000 attendees annually, showcasing more than 30 garden displays and 250 garden marketplace vendors.  There will be demonstrations and lectures, with an emphasis on organic gardening.  Children under five receive free admission.
