2023 PHILADELPHIA FLOWER SHOW

Spade and Trowel Club's Entry in the Flower Show   - "The Lesser Light  "

​

The Spade and Trowel Club entered the windowsill class in the 2023 Philadelphia Flower Show.

The members put together a display that contained objects and plants illustrating the windowsill's theme, which was "The Lesser Light". 

Intent:  Long northern winters bring hours of moonlight reflecting off abundant snow.  Lunar light bathes this serene window alcove and enhances the nighttime beauty of each plant's unique characteristics in this tranquil indoor escape.  Stars wink their approval.
​
During the judging results, Spade and Trowel earned the Blue Ribbon!

Spade and Trowel Member's Arrangement in the Flower Show

​
​In the Artistic Arrangement Category, the class title was "You Light Up My Senses."


The design had to incorporate battery operated lights. Our member Beverly Schmitt designed the exhibit, including installing the lights in the stems so no wires were visible.
​

Placed First, a Blue Ribbon!  Judges Comments were, “Electric Synergy of line and form combine in a very successful subtle color illumination. Flawless mechanics!”
