Description
The National Flower Show was held in Philadelphia from March 25 through April 2, 1916, at Convention Hall, Broad and Allegheny Avenues. This was a large show organized by the Society of American Florists in cooperation with PHS, the Florists Club of Philadelphia, and several trade, professional, and educational groups. Its success convinced local organizers that the public was interested in large spring flower shows. Many participants in this show reunited in the mid 1920s to organize the spring event, the Philadelphia Flower Show.
