Hello friends.  I recently visited the Macy's Flower Show in New York City.  This is the last part of the Flower Show and just in case you missed Part 1, you can see that HERE, and Part 2 HERE.

Now we are onto the second level; the sides of Macy's, and from where we were standing you could look down and get a great view of the flower show.


Below, I got a closeup shot of different plants located from the Southwest part of the US.  If you look closely you can see many cactus plants.


Below are some shots I took of Girl Scouts Badges made up of flowers.



Here is another shot looking down at the flowers and the makeup area (which I love).


We did a little bit of shopping and looking around in the handbags section.  Look more florals!


We next went to different floors looking at the clothes.  I just had to share with you these interesting manikins.  Look at the denim outfits and their hairstyles.  I especial like the interesting hairstyle on the manikin sitting down.


I noticed the fashions that are popular this spring season are denim, blue, white, and black.  I also saw many different shades of coral and orange.  There were tops and dresses in stripes and florals.


After some retail shopping we decided to have lunch on the 8th floor of Macy's at Au Bon Pain.  It is a bakery that sells fresh baked bread, croissants, muffins, and scones.  They also sell sandwiches, wraps, salad, and soup.  My friend and I both decided to have sandwiches, and I had an avocado BLT that was delicious.

My friend and I both had a great day out together and we enjoyed seeing the flower show this year.

Now that I have seen so many beautiful flowers, I will be ready to plant different flower combinations  in May.  It's been too cold here for me to do any gardening and hopefully May will be a warmer month. LOL!

Thanks everyone for coming along with me as I shared the tour of the Macy's Flower Show.  This is such a spectacular event and I hope I may have inspired you to visit it next spring.

Hello friends.  I recently went to the Macy's Flower Show in New York City with a friend.  It's been so many years since I've seen this spactacular show.  It is always held each year in the spring.  It was so fun to spend the day looking at spring plants and flowers and get some inspiration for spring gardening.  Come along and let me show you our day!


We both got into the city early in the morning, as to avoid the big crowds of people who were there for the flower show and to shop in the store.  Luckily the day that we went was a warm and sunny day.

We decided to look first at the outside windows displayed with all of their colorful flowers.  I just love those hydrangeas and daffodils.


It was hard to get good photos of the flowers in the windows due to the reflection of the glass.  The window below is of the redwood trees in California and the San Francisco Golden Gate Bridge.


Next is the Southwest and look at the pretty flowers among the rocks.


Look at all those gorgeous white flowers.


I thought the display below of the dog, his toy, and bowl of water, was so adorable.  The dog even has flowers around his neck for the collar.


Look at the different flower and plant combos.  There is just so much inspiration for spring gardening.


Yellow daffodils are one of my favorite springtime flowers.  I like the color contrast of the yellow and pink flowers.


Thanks everyone and enjoy!
