Hawaii beckons from the Philadelphia Flower Show

PHILADELPHIA — A towering waterfall surrounded by a rainbow of exotic tropical orchids, bright orange and purple bird-of-paradise look-alikes and stands of outrageously brazen and glistening crimson heart-shaped anthurium are delighting visitors with an eye-popping mass of color as they enter the Philadelphia International Flower Show this week.

They bring to life this year's theme: Aloha: Islands of Hawaii .

Woven bamboo and palm huts, surfboards, hula dancers and an enormous multi-media wave light show can really get a gardener's creative sap flowing, tempting visitors with a taste of what it's like to be a horticultural kahuna .

Since 1838, this annual event, which runs through Sunday, has grown into one of the largest and most highly acclaimed indoor flower shows in the world, packed with 10 acres of competitive exhibitions, gardening classes, design and landscape displays, representatives from major horticultural societies and a marketplace with more than 150 vendors. More than 250,000 visitors are expected.
