The Philadelphia Flower Show is the oldest flower show in the United States and the largest indoor flower show in the world, attracting more than 250,000 visitors annually from across the country and the world.
The 2004 Philadelphia Flower Show was the 175th anniversary edition of the show. The theme "Destination Paradise" really seemed to inspire the imaginations of all entrants from the professional exhibitors to those participating in the competitive classes.
We hope that you enjoy our photos of the 2004 Philadelphia Flower Show. Be sure also to check our 300+ photos of the major exhibitors.
