We went to the RI garden show last year and we are going again. I was pleasantly surprised. Do go in the beginning as I have gone to other shows toward the end of the show and the flowers were past their prime. I had also gone to the Philadelphia show the same year and I was more impressed with the RI show. Not as big but the displays were lovely and the lectures were very good. Lynne

Boston is the only show in the same league as Philadelphia, in this part of the country. RI and CT are nice if you are close by but not worth going any distance for.
