Maryland Home & Garden Show - March 8-10, 2013

By

Maryland Home & Garden Show
March 8-10, 2013
 
The Maryland Home & Garden Show was open this past weekend and will again be open this weekend.  The show is located at the Maryland State Fairgrounds in Timonium.  This is the 32nd year for the show and there will be over 450 home, garden and craft booths. 
 
Dolores and I like to attend the Maryland Home & Garden Show on the second weekend because that is the time to see the Maryland Orchid Society Show and Sale.  There will be thousands of orchids on display.

Visit the website at Maryland Home and Garden Show 
and let HGTV's Jim Parks show you around the site.  Jim helps the attendees plan their visit to the show.  He can even show you where you can purchase advance tickets on line. As an added bonus, if you purchase tickets on line, you will get $2 off adult and senior tickets, plus a subscription to Better Homes and Gardens Magazine.

Thanks for your feedback.  The Orchid sale on the second weekend is the place to be if you wish to purchase orchids.

Roy,  What a beautiful flower.  It's like someone very little coming out of the center of it to talk to you.  I can tell there is no shyness in this flower...what a presentation!  Oh the photographer is amazing too!  Cheers :)

I try to post a reblog every day. It is an easy way to pay it forward with other members.

It is sometimes a good idea to revisit old blogs and reblogs. We might even find some good ideas for new posts.
