If you’re headed to the Pacific Northwest in late February, Road Trips Gardeners, consider scheduling a stop at the Northwest Flower & Garden Show.

It’s scheduled for February 20 through 24, 2013, in the Washington State Convention Center, Seattle, Washington (map).

The display gardens are the heart and soul of all world-class flower shows — there’s a complete list online.

Seminars and demonstrations are scheduled for all five days of the show. Your favorite authors will be on hand for book signings.
