Scenes from the Boston Flower & Garden Show

Despite another storm on the horizon, here's evidence that spring will arrive -- eventually. Calendar-wise, it starts tomorrow.

Another winter storm is on the horizon, but hope springs eternal. And speaking of spring … it actually starts Tuesday. Here are photos from last week’s Boston Garden & Flower Show to get you into that mind-set. And don’t forget: The City of Boston and the Trustees of Reservations are hosting a free event for gardeners. The 43d Annual Gardeners’ Gathering will take place on Saturday, March 31, at Northeastern University’s Shillman Hall and Behrakis Health Sciences Center. The free event offers about a dozen workshops for vegetable and ornamental gardeners with an emphasis on healthy practices for urban growing.
