Did you catch “Cake Boss” last night? The episode of the popular TLC show was primarily filmed at the 2012 Philadelphia International Flower Show!
The stars of the reality-TV show provided a tropical-themed dessert for the wedding of Flower Show exhibitors Bill Schaffer and Kris Kratt. The ceremony was held on the stage in the Show’s central feature, followed by a reception on the Show floor.
Don’t worry if you missed it. The episode, titled “Beer, Buttercups, and Bumbling”, airs again tonight (Tuesday, June 19) at 7 pm and next Monday at 8 pm. Check local listings.
The 2012 Flower Show lives on in Philadelphia in other ways: Beautiful palm trees from the Show have been transplanted to the front of some of Center City’s most exciting addresses, including the Ritz Carlton Hotel and the Shops at the Bellevue.
Also, elements of the Flower Show and parts of the PHS exhibit are being incorporated into the new PHS Pop Up Garden that opens June 22 in the Rittenhouse Square neighborhood. Plus, horticultural designs inspired by Britain’s gardens and landscapes have been added to Logan Square and PHS headquarters in anticipation of the 2013 Flower Show, “Brilliant!”
We hope you have the opportunity to relive some of the Flower Show around Philadelphia this summer!
