Guess where I took these images (sorry about the crappy quality -- low light, and lots of people make for difficult shooting):
Some kind of home and garden show? A plant geek event? Nope: Check out this one:
A cool little three wheeled thing surrounded by cyclamen? Yes folks, we're talking about
The North American International Auto Show in Detroit. And it was jam packed with plants -- iris reticulata, tulips, daffodils, magnolias, cyclamin, boxwoods, taxus, forsythia.... Plants are officially going mainstream, people.
And thank goodness for that! I'm NOT a car person -- as in, I was 22 when I got my drivers license... took the test the same week I took the GRE for grad school. Aced the GRE. Almost failed the drivers test. Even now I bicycle if at all possible. My partner, on the other hand, built his first car from scrap when he was 15. So we went to the autoshow. The plants were the only thing that kept me awake!
Though I do have to admit, there were a couple cool cars: I loved this cute little all-electric pickup truck! Perfect for quick trips to the nursery.
And I begrudgingly admit that this car was pretty cool too... it also costs more than twice what I paid for my HOUSE.

Flowers at the car show - even car geeks like a little blooming vegetation!
Wow! Great pictures. This looks like a car show I'd actually want to go to. I wonder what they're going to do with the flowers after the show closes.
Wow, that was strange. I just wrote a really long comment but after I clicked submit my comment didn't show up. Grrrr... well, I'm not writing all that over again. Anyways, just wanted to say fantastic blog!
