\"Macy's
Macy’s Flower Show<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n

I can’t believe I’ve been a Macy’s department store customer for years and didn’t realize they had an annual flower show exhibit. It’s amazing the things you discover later in life. Apparently, it’s been happening for 72 years now. The first show was held way back in 1946. Pots of plants were displayed around the store to promote their cosmetic fragrances. Over the years, the displays have gotten more and more extravagant. This year’s theme is “Once Upon a Springtime<\/a>” blending floral enchantment with a fairy tale theme.\u00a0 It is held at their three flagship stores in San Francisco at Union Square, Chicago on North State Street and New York City at Herald Square.<\/p>\n

The designs and arrangements are done by the same creative team that manages and coordinates the Macy’s Thanksgiving Day Parade and the Fourth of July Fireworks Spectacular. Their plans include picking varying types of colorful species of plants and flower, handling the different temperature requirements, watering them after hours and ensuring that they all bloom at the same time. Their hard work pays off; the whole store looks and smells amazing. I would suggest downloading and reading the free storybook “Once Upon A Springtime”<\/a> before viewing the display. You’ll be able to spot the different characters from the book including Sir Dillon the knight, Dagny the dragon and Princess Spring.<\/p>\n

There are events<\/a> happening throughout the 2 weeks the exhibit is on display. The exhibit last until April 8. Catch it before it’s gone.<\/p>\n
