Dear Tim:
The Flower Show is back, and better than ever, with a new production team and new location! Featuring the top thirty designers in the region and an array of speakers all reflecting the theme “A Feast for the Senses.” The flowers will be blooming at the World Trade Center Boston (WTCB) from Wed., March 24-Sun., March 28. Please read the attached material to learn all the detail.
Once again, we’d like to offer your weather team live-remotes inside the beautiful gardens at the WTCB. We also will be sending you and your colleagues boutonnieres to wear on camera as Boston welcomes this traditional rite of Spring.
Look forward to hearing from you. I’ll be in touch.
Best,
Susan
and this one from Maine..
