Cheerio! Do you feel like you’re craving tea, sophisticated accents and bad teeth? (Just kidding about that last one..!) You don’t need to get on a plane to get your London fix.

If you enjoyed our Philadelphia Flower Show 2013 Preview, we have great news for you! We’re giving away a pair of tickets to a lucky reader.

How to enter: Like us on Facebook (if you haven’t already) and leave a comment below (on this post) about what your favorite “British” thing. (If you’re already a Facebook fan, simply mention that in your comment.)

There is a lot to enjoy at this year’s Flower Show. The recent traditions of “Wedding Wednesday”, “Girls’ Night Out” Thursday & Family Day (March 10) continue for 2013. A Garden to Table Kitchen offers culinary demonstrations and fresh ingredients from the garden. A New Plant Showcase will introduce recently developed varieties of flowers and plants by internationally acclaimed growers. Plus, there’s even an attraction for the men. “The Backyard” is devoted to outdoor living: complete with decks, grills, fire pits, garden techniques and more!

Contest details: The winner will be chosen Tuesday evening (March 5th) by 5 PM and be notified by email that they’ll receive 2 tickets to the Philadelphia Flower Show. The winner will be chosen from random.org.

I enjoy tea! So I enjoy British tea! I’m hoping to see some flora that are used in afternoon tea parties at the flower show.

And I’m in love with Downton Abbey. NBD.

I love the way Brits tend to reuse old, historic buildings and have kept small villages/towns contained.. and surrounded by rolling hills of green! (Also always amazed how green their thumbs are given the climate!)

My green vs. gray facebook page likes your green philly blog facebook page.

Thanks!

Hi Inga – We’re not sure so it would be best to call the Flower Show Box office or try contacting PHS who runs it: 215-988-8800. Good luck!
