The PHS Philadelphia Flower Show, the nation's largest and longest-running horticultural event, returns to the Pennsylvania Convention Center his weekend and there's one local man who has been a big part of the show for 25 years.

Philadelphia Cactus and Succulent Society member Paul Weslowski has been the chair for the club's exhibit at the flower show for 25 years."It was founded in 1942 to educate people about these plants so that they could grow them better," he said.

"Philadelphia Cactus and Succulent Society is one of the biggest groups of people who enter individual plants in what's called the 'Hamilton Horticourt' at the flower show," said Wesolowski. Wesolowski says he got his first cactus in high school and his home collection has now grown to over 1,000 plants.

Will he be wearing a bullet proof jacket? I ask because this IS Philadelphia, after all.

I went to the show in 1968.

The home and garden show is also going on at the farm show :D Odd that they are both going on at the same time.

Review: A reimagined 'Secret Garden' fails to flower anew at the Ahmanson TheatreMarsha Norman and Lucy Simon's musical, based on Frances Hodgson Burnett's beloved children's novel, gets a new production at at the Ahmanson Theatre with Broadway in the show's sights. It was 'fine', but cutting two songs from the second act was a bad choice. It took out needed backstory and Archie's character development, not to mention beautiful music. That was really upsetting. Maybe our expectations were too high, but it was underwhelming.
