Some garden clubs hold a flower show every year, in which members are encouraged to enter arrangements or horticulture exhibits. To produce a flower show, the club must choose a location for the show, a chairman , and a theme. A schedule follows that theme, and defines all parts of the show. It has a written schedule with at least 5 design classes, each having at least 4 entries, and 5 or more horticulture classes. A Flower Show requires careful planning, and a lot of effort.
Flower shows are open to the public.
Below are some of the designs exhibited at the Schenectady County Flower Show held at the Schenectady Museum on September 15, 2000.
